One pitch was belt high and caught what looked like about 3-4 inches of the white on the outside. The other one was right in the middle of the plate a little above the knees. I know we all miss some pitches, but if the camera didn't deceive me, I wasn't too impressed with his strike zone. These umpires should be the elite of the elite I would think. Dave
I have not seen as many of the Regional, Super Regional or WCWS games as I would have liked this year, but have seen a few with the ESPN "Strike Cam".........

I have liked it for the most part.....but am not very sure of its accuracy........

It seems to like the low part of the zone.....which most umpires have (including me) have an issue with.......oh well......
