If you pissed cutch off you know you fucked up.

Damn you could obviously tell that was a ball if I was Andrew McCutchen I would work the umpires ass

[dylansmith]

Looked like a good pitch. Swing the bat crybabies.

[Malfy]

Its not Cutch's fault, its the umpire.

[alanhess]

Look at the 0:25 mark. The ball is clearly at the hollow beneath the knees. For those of you that don't know, the hollow beneath the knee is the bottom of the strike zone. That is a strike all day yet the pitch track box shows it to be low. Those graphic boxes are unreliable. It is difficult to represent a 3D strike zone with a 2D Graphic.

[ThekiBoran]

Either a pitch is a strike or it isn't. With available technology there's no reason to leave these calls up to umpires who have an axe to grind. People who are opposed to an electronic/computerized strike zone are really saying they love blown calls and the effect they have on a game.
