Pitch Trackers
 
Just asking for opinions on how accurate you think the pitch trackers are for the MLB games?
I was watching a game yesterday evening where a strike was called, batter complained, tracker showed low and outside.

I personally thought it was borderline either way, but not nearly as low and outside like the tracker showed.

The tracker is a machine and strikes are called by humans. I don't think anymore needs to be said.

Discussion of 2016 AL and NL Division Series - Close Call Sports/ Umpire Ejection Fantasy League - Umpire-Empire

There's a lot of discussion in this and the uefl discussion on the strike zones on TV and brooks baseball.

Gil has provided data on how each plate ump has done in each game.

Early on - it might be in the wild card game threads, there's information on normalized vs normalized zones on tv/sites (whether it's an average 1.5-3.5' height or it's stretched to that batter's actual zone).

TBS is notoriously horrible with their on-screen zone.
