18 half innings with avg 4-6 batters per, is approximately 90 batters.

This rating system is judged upon 1/4 of the HP calls?????

What am I missing?
Umpires are not judged on obvious strikes or balls. There's probably a bit more to it...but my point is that you have to get your money pitches. If you get 10 correct that are cock shots, and miss one border one, 90% is not a true indictor of how good of a job you're doing. Let's take 10 border pitches and say you got 9 of them right, now that's a nice job.
