K on 3 pitches, welcome to the big leagues kid 2nd AB. 3U. Ump appears to be giving him the rookie treatment with the strike zone According to ESPN pxp graphic, every called strike was in the zone. The first strike three was inside. The first pitch of the 3U was outside. If the ESPN pxp graphic says differently, it says wrong. |

Well, I'd like to think we could have lured him down to Corvallis. Could have had Drury in that time frame too. Might have put us over the edge that season, having Drury and Glasnow. Never know. |

Many fans fall prey to thinking the computer generated strike zone is actually accurate. To some degree, yes. www.closecallsports.com/2019/09/the-2d-tv-computer-strike-zones-3d.html?m=1But, there is a varying MOE cir the system depending on many factors. The 2021 Zona Fall league was a fiasco. Any ball that crossed thru the zone Any time was a strike in many cases. Just as camera view/angles vary a look, it can't also give the 3rd dimension of depth. Many pitches on a TV view are greatly distorted. A great ump is just that, but they all will make bad calls. It's part of the game, like bad pitches, errors, etc. You just hope that better consistency can be developed. The day MLB adopts AI type ball & strike calls is the day I never watch again... TV or in person. |

TV or in person. You can't stop progress. It's going to happen. All the old guys that stopped watching when they started throwing over hand, moved the mound back to 60.5 feet, lowered the mound, implemented the DH, changed the extra innings rule, made the DH universal, added pitch clocks, limited the times the pitcher can throw over and enlarged the bags werent missed. You won't be either. |

I’m watching tonight’s game on the Giants feed, first two strikes called in his first AB were outside the strike box. Even the announcer said he going to have to expand the zone 2nd AB , first pitch out of the zone so far SF manager got tossed. Another K |

Meck with his first big league knock Line drive to center Meckler starts in center, and Conforto starts in right. Meckler gets his first hit in at bat number six. Meckler chased Zack Littell, and the Giants broke it open after that. Meckler scored run number two. Conforto drove in run number six on a two-out double and then scored run number seven. Meckler finished 2/4 with a run, and Conforto finished 3/4 with the double. Meckler and Conforto combined for most of the Giants' hits. |
