What this shows — how Dan Iassogna called the 183 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 168 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

8 pitches went to the robots · 4 overturned (ump overruled) · 4 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.

  1. 1Heliot Ramos — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
  2. 2Brett Bateman — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
  3. 3Alejandro Kirk — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
  4. 4Alejandro Kirk — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
  5. 5Luis García Jr. — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
  6. 6George Lombard Jr. — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
  7. 7Ben Rice — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
  8. 8Austin Wells — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.

Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 4 of 8 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
