Home plate: John Tumpane
“Called a fair game and let the players decide it.”
What this shows — how John Tumpane called the 120 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 115 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+0.19▼1 · 2-0 strike called ball
Trea Turner vs Cam Schlittler - 2+0.13▲2 · 1-0 strike called ball
Cody Bellinger vs Jesús Luzardo - 3-0.13▼8 · 1-0 ball called strike
Bryson Stott vs Cam Schlittler
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
4 pitches went to the robots · 3 overturned (ump overruled) · 1 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1J.T. Realmuto — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
- 2Anthony Volpe — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 3Bryce Harper — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
- 4Bryce Harper — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 1 of 4 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
