You have got to see the pitch all the way into the catchers glove. Where he catches it will give you a good perspective on how high or low it was when it crossed the plate. A fastball must be caught just below the batters knees, while a curve ball can be a bit lower. But I have a hard time calling a strike if the pitch is caught more than 4 inches below the knees. That's my method and it works for me.
