Guys,
Reading the roiginal sitch it says that Cowbyfan1 called the pitch a ball because it did not pass over any of the white and barely caught the black that unfortunately was showing.
His error, as I see it, is requiring the pitcher to "hit his mark" to call a marginal pitch a strike, which I find to be unnacceptable.
As LDUB inferred, just call each legal pitch that passes over the plate and in the strike zone a strike and forget about any catcher movement.
