Tuss:

I have no idea if you are attempting to pull our collective leg or not.

All levels from MLB down through high school have made it obvious in the last four years that they want the "high strike" called . . .

Someone here mentioned the sternum . . . many of my partners talk of "below the elbows" . . . some use the bottom edge of lettering on the uniform top.

NONE of the umpires I work with call the "OLD" strike zone of barely above the belt.

We have worked hard at making the changes that the game requires and decision such as yours set "the next umpire" that works your teams up for failure.

Please, leave faulty science for the "Mythbusters" and call the game as it is meant to be called.

Regards,
