ATL @ PHI
Home plate: Steven Jaschinski
“Reliable as a Tuesday: no complaints, no headlines.”
What this shows — how Steven Jaschinski called the 136 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 128 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

Bryan De La Cruz vs Chris Sale - 2-0.19▼2 · 2-0 ball called strike
Luis Arraez vs Chris Sale - 3+0.13▲3 · 1-1 strike called ball
Matt Olson vs Cristopher Sánchez
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
3 pitches went to the robots · 2 overturned (ump overruled) · 1 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1J.T. Realmuto — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 2J.T. Realmuto — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
- 3Sean Murphy — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 3 of 3 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
