What this shows — how Dan Iassogna called the 156 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 147 right. Below, only his misses are plotted, alongside every pitch the ABS (Automated Ball-Strike System) reviewed on a challenge.

The zone, as he called it

ABS — the Automated Ball-Strike System

7 pitches went to the robots · 5 overturned (ump overruled) · 2 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.

  1. 1Hunter Goodman — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
  2. 2Kyle Karros — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
  3. 3Freddie Freeman — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
  4. 4Andy Pages — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
  5. 5Hunter Goodman — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
  6. 6Dalton Rushing — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
  7. 7Hunter Goodman — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.

Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 6 of 7 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
