As the age goes up, the more aggressive (hopefully) and then bring it in.
I believe that you can be very generous with the width of the zone, but not the heighth.

I respectfully disagree. I see guys hit it out of the park when the ball is a at the top part of his shoulders. I think a strike should be called at the lower part of the arm pits since this is a very hitable pitch. Besides the strike zone is halfway between the wasteline and the shoulders. I personally think that many veteran umpires should open up the strike zone.
