ATL @ PIT
Home plate: Edwin Moscoso
“If umpiring had a highlight reel, this wouldn't make it. That's the compliment.”
What this shows — how Edwin Moscoso called the 122 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 117 right. Below, only his misses are plotted, alongside every pitch the ABS (Automated Ball-Strike System) reviewed on a challenge.

Run impact from the count run-value table: a missed strike three is worth far more than one on 3-0.
ABS — the Automated Ball-Strike System
3 pitches went to the robots · 1 overturned (ump overruled) · 2 upheld (ump confirmed). This is Hawkeye ground truth, no model involved.
- 1Michael Harris II — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
- 2Jorge Mateo — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
- 3Marcell Ozuna — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 2 of 3 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
