“This one went to video review more than most.”
What this shows — how Edwin Moscoso called the 145 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 132 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
7 pitches went to the robots · 5 overturned (ump overruled) · 2 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1Cedric Mullins — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
- 2Liam Hicks — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 3Liam Hicks — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
- 4Jonny DeLuca — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
- 5Shane Baz — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 6Samuel Basallo — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 7Coby Mayo — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 7 of 7 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
