Rabbit Ears and Violent Dissaproval

[jkumpire]

"A pitch one "inch inside" is a ball? The pitcher had a legitimate gripe. Some times, it pays for the umpire to listen to the griping. After you hear it, then shut it down and consider making an adjustment to your timing and/or judgment."

Sorry, I disagree. My zone is my zone, and if the pitch is inside off the plate before the moaning, it's the same after the moaning. A good partner might tell you after your game it's too tight, but I'm not going to have any dugout change my zone...
