This article is almost a year old, but I just stumbled across it.

This year, like basically every year, the strike zone is a NCAA POE for umpires. I love me some called third strikes, but I realized I've been as guilty of balling a good marginal pitch on 0-2 as the MLB guys. I'm not sure why that happens...we get paid for outs, not for balls and walks. It may be an effort to avoid a gross miss on strike 3, shrinking that zone down to the size of a sheet of paper. I don't know.
I'm going to add this to my list of things to work on: not just a consistent zone for all games and all batters, but all pitch counts and situations too. More strike 3's for everyone!
