I use the river, ocean theory. Stays out of lines of BB, then it is in
the river and a strike, goes inside box, "ocean" ball. Lay a softball on
the side of the plate in the blank area between HP and BB lines. Looks
like a strike to me.

If any part of the ball is over the Batter's box line closest to home plate, is that a ball? To state it another way, does the entire ball have to be between the Batter's box line and the plate to be a strike?
Do you give the same strike zone on the outside corner as well?
