Gimme a few minutes and I'll come up with "baseball vs water polo" officiating analogy so we can get completely off-topic.

Why in the HE77 are we comparing one totally different sport to another here?

Sure, they both have a strike zone, but the ball moves differently, and the expectations of the strike zone are different. Sorry, but that's reality.

Sure, we have basically the same mechanics, but I will get drilled in my evaluations if I make a 2-part strike call, look robotic on the stick or on the bases, or call a humongous deuce that busts off and ends up almost in the dirt a strike. Not gonna happen at the levels I work.

Let's stick to baseball here, y'all.
