ATL @ STL
Home plate: Dan Iassogna
“Hawkeye did more talking than the umpire tonight.”
What this shows — how Dan Iassogna called the 118 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 102 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
The calls that moved the game

Ozzie Albies vs Matthew Liberatore - 2+0.28▲2 · 1-2 strike called ball
Eli White vs Matthew Liberatore - 3-0.28▲7 · 1-2 ball called strike
Austin Riley vs Luis Gastelum
Run impact from the count run-value table: a missed strike three is worth far more than one on 3-0.
