“A workmanlike night — nothing to frame, nothing to fix.”
What this shows — how Chris Segal called the 149 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 137 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▼6 · 0-2 strike called ball

Nico Hoerner vs Justin Wrobleski - 3-0.21▼6 · 3-0 ball called strike
Ian Happ vs Edgardo Henriquez
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 · 4 overturned (ump overruled) · 1 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1Nico Hoerner — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 2Teoscar Hernández — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 3Carson Kelly — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
- 4Carson Kelly — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 5Carson Kelly — 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.
