What this shows — how Tom Hanahan called the 139 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 134 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

Challenge 1: Sean Murphy — the ump called it a strike, the robot ruled ball (OVERTURNED — ump overruled).1Challenge 2: Connor Norby — the ump called it a strike, the robot ruled strike (upheld — ump confirmed).2Challenge 3: Cole Carrigg — the ump called it a ball, the robot ruled strike (OVERTURNED — ump overruled).3Challenge 4: Hunter Goodman — the ump called it a strike, the robot ruled ball (OVERTURNED — ump overruled).4Challenge 5: Ha-Seong Kim — the ump called it a ball, the robot ruled strike (OVERTURNED — ump overruled).5Challenge 6: Sean Murphy — the ump called it a ball, the robot ruled ball (upheld — ump confirmed).6

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

6 pitches went to the robots · 4 overturned (ump overruled) · 2 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.

  1. 1Sean Murphy — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
  2. 2Connor Norby — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
  3. 3Cole Carrigg — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
  4. 4Hunter Goodman — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
  5. 5Ha-Seong Kim — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
  6. 6Sean Murphy — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.

Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 2 of 6 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
