Recently saw local college fall tournament. Catcher from LaSalle, even after the umpire had a talk with her, insisted on framing every pitch to the center of the zone no matter where it was. Fans couldn't understand why this pitcher wasn't getting a called strike on every pitch.
Coach finally caught on and replaced catcher. All of a sudden, the fans were satisfied with the umpire's strike zone! Go figure.
