LAD @ COL
Home plate: Adam Hamari
“Solid and unspectacular — exactly what the job asks.”
What this shows — how Adam Hamari called the 132 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 125 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
- 1-0.39▼4 · 2-2 ball called strike
Braxton Fulford vs Eric Lauer - 2+0.23▲6 · 0-2 strike called ball
Hunter Feduccia vs Parker Mushinski - 3+0.20▲3 · 2-1 strike called ball
Freddie Freeman vs Ryan Feltner
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
1 pitch went to the robots · 0 overturned (ump overruled) · 1 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1TJ Rumfield — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 1 of 1 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
