COL @ NYY
Home plate: Steven Jaschinski
“A steady night's work behind the plate.”
What this shows — how Steven Jaschinski called the 144 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone, or, on a pitch the ABS (Automated Ball-Strike System) reviewed on a challenge, against its ruling. 138 were right. Below, only the misses are plotted, alongside every challenged pitch.
The zone, as he called it
The calls that moved the game
- 1-0.39▲2 · 2-2 ball called strike
Kyle Karros vs Cam Schlittler - 2-0.39▲8 · 2-2 ball called strike
Connor Norby vs Brent Headrick - 3-0.20▼8 · 2-1 ball called strike
George Lombard Jr. vs Blas Castaño
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 · 1 overturned (ump overruled) · 3 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1Hunter Goodman — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 2George Lombard Jr. — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
- 3Cole Carrigg — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
- 4Adael Amador — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 4 of 4 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone). Where the two disagree, the umpire is graded on the ABS ruling.
