My zone got stuck.

....A coupla Adult OBR games in a tournament today.

For every pitch, in the first two innings of the first game, that was at the "hollow of the knees" I said, "Ball."
But, I kept saying to myself that I gotta call that a 'strike'.
By gosh, I just couldn't!!!
By the third inning I gave up.
The shortened zone stayed there.

Within an hour after the game, in polite conversation, I had apologized to both pitchers and each said no problem, it was there all day.

Have you ever been 'Stuck' in a place and totally unable to escape? It felt really weird.
