Home plate: Louie Krupa
“Nothing that'll trend, and on this beat that's a compliment.”
What this shows — how Louie Krupa called the 147 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 140 right. Below, only his misses are plotted, alongside every pitch the ABS (Automated Ball-Strike System) reviewed on a challenge.

Nasim Nuñez vs Drew Anderson - 3+0.09▼2 · 0-0 strike called ball
Max Clark vs Riley Cornelio
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.
- 1Keibert Ruiz — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 2Keibert Ruiz — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
- 3Kevin McGonigle — ump said strike, robot ruled strike: upheld.
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.
