Home plate: Mike Estabrook
“Hawkeye did more talking than the umpire tonight.”
What this shows — how Mike Estabrook called the 150 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. 134 were right. Below, only the misses are plotted, alongside every challenged pitch.

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 · 5 overturned (ump overruled) · 1 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1Francisco Alvarez — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 2Otto Lopez — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
- 3Jared Serna — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
- 4Brian Navarreto — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 5Deyvison De Los Santos — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
- 6Jakob Marsee — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 6 of 6 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone). Where the two disagree, the umpire is graded on the ABS ruling.
