“An honest evening's grade: nothing loud, nothing missed by much.”
What this shows — how Tyler Jones called the 104 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 100 right. Below, only his misses are plotted, alongside every pitch the ABS (Automated Ball-Strike System) reviewed on a challenge.

ABS — the Automated Ball-Strike System
4 pitches went to the robots · 4 overturned (ump overruled) · 0 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1Chase DeLauter — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 2Nick Fortes — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
- 3Austin Hedges — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
- 4Austin Hedges — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 2 of 4 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
