“Nothing that'll trend, and on this beat that's a compliment.”
What this shows — how Jansen Visconti called the 134 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 126 right. Below, only his misses are plotted, alongside every pitch the ABS (Automated Ball-Strike System) reviewed on a challenge.

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
4 pitches went to the robots · 2 overturned (ump overruled) · 2 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1Luis Campusano — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
- 2Luis Campusano — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 3Liam Hicks — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 4Kenny Piper — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 4 of 4 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
