TEX @ HOU
Home plate: Adam Hamari
“A workmanlike night — nothing to frame, nothing to fix.”
What this shows — how Adam Hamari called the 160 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 151 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+0.23▼5 · 0-2 strike called ball
Taylor Trammell vs Tyler Alexander - 2+0.23▼8 · 0-2 strike called ball
Christian Walker vs Chase Silseth - 3+0.10▼6 · 0-1 strike called ball
Jeremy Peña vs Tyler Alexander
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
2 pitches went to the robots · 2 overturned (ump overruled) · 0 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1Christian Walker — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 2Wyatt Langford — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 0 of 2 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
