COL @ NYY
Home plate: Ryan Additon
“Nothing that'll trend, and on this beat that's a compliment.”
What this shows — how Ryan Additon called the 179 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. 169 were right. Below, only the misses are plotted, alongside every challenged pitch.
