How many think the following statement could stand up under scrutiny?

A pitch that takes the knee at the front of the zone did not pass through the zone.
I think it depends on your definition of "pass through." That is, is the strike zone a two-dimensional plane and if the ball hits the plane at teh front of the plate (ignoring any comments about whether it's the plate or the front knee, or ... that sets the location), it's a strike? Or, is it a three-dimensional objenct and the ball must be in the zone both at the front and the back of the object?
