CLE @ TB
Home plate: Adam Hamari
“An honest evening's grade: nothing loud, nothing missed by much.”
What this shows — how Adam Hamari called the 152 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 144 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
- 1+0.69▲1 · 3-2 strike called ball
Chase DeLauter vs Shane McClanahan - 2+0.23▲6 · 0-2 strike called ball
David Fry vs Cole Sulser - 3-0.21▼4 · 3-0 ball called strike
Jonathan Aranda vs Joey Cantillo
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
5 pitches went to the robots · 2 overturned (ump overruled) · 3 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1Cedric Mullins — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 2Nick Fortes — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
- 3Austin Hedges — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
- 4Jonathan Aranda — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
- 5Austin Hedges — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 2 of 5 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
