We have enough trouble with the strike zone as . . .
There are many top clinicians who recommend that we do indeed call the black when it is showing. Jim Evans can be counted among this crowd.

Technically, the black is not a part of the plate. It is supposed to be buried. But if it's showing, I'll be calling it. I don't know about the rest of you.
