Saw a post on Ezteams re black lines.. and remembered this occurance at my ASA Mechanics and Rules thingy a little while back...
27 inches.. thats the strike zone...
4 in for ball .. L/R = 8
+
1 inch per black line X 2 =2
+
17 inches for the plate.. == 27 Inches wide
I remember smiling to myself thinking.. ole Irishmike would be going into cardiac arrest.
Thoughts on the 27 inch strike zone being taught by ASA's elite umpire squardran? Oh and the umpire teaching that WAS ASA elite...literally. Even had the cute little hat and everything.
The elite ump promised all the way through D1 college calling a 27 inch wide zone keeps everyone happy.
Good class though.. but thought I'd toss this out there for response
