“Reliable as a Tuesday: no complaints, no headlines.”
What this shows — how Dan Iassogna called the 165 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. 153 were right. Below, only the misses are plotted, alongside every challenged pitch.
The zone, as he called it
The calls that moved the game
- 1-0.21▲2 · 3-0 ball called strike
Teoscar Hernández vs Tyler Phillips - 2-0.21▲2 · 3-0 ball called strike
Hunter Feduccia vs Tyler Phillips - 3+0.20▲6 · 2-1 strike called ball
Mookie Betts vs Tyler Zuber
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 · 1 overturned (ump overruled) · 2 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1Tyler Glasnow — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
- 2Hunter Feduccia — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 3Joe Mack — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 3 of 3 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone). Where the two disagree, the umpire is graded on the ABS ruling.
