Welcome to 2:45 minute games.
Call the strike zone as defined by quality umpires.

The last time I threw a ball to F1 was 1981. I was taught my two MLB catchers that: "Tee, it is our job to throw balls to that meathead."

Do me a favor and contact Jim Evans and tell him he is wrong in what he teaches.
I will send a copy of your post to the Hall of Fame so they can correct their records.
