Wrong. The strike zone is established by the batter's natural stance. Doesn't matter if they crouch, stand on their toes, or sit down in the box.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
