Home plate: Dillon Wilson
“A steady night's work behind the plate.”
What this shows — how Dillon Wilson called the 157 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 145 right. Below, only his misses are plotted, alongside every pitch the ABS (Automated Ball-Strike System) reviewed on a challenge.
The zone, as he called it
The calls that moved the game
- 1+0.28▼2 · 1-2 strike called ball
Brett Harris vs Connor Prielipp - 2-0.20▼1 · 2-1 ball called strike
Jonah Cox vs Connor Prielipp - 3+0.20▲7 · 2-1 strike called ball
Emmanuel Rodriguez vs Dylan Smith
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 · 2 overturned (ump overruled) · 1 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.
- 1Andrew Knizner — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 2Andrew Knizner — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
- 3Ryan Jeffers — 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), not our error.
