The shoulder high 12 foot arc is the hardest pitch for most of us. Try to focus on the top of the batter's zone and see if it looks like it came under that.
Where it lands should not be used, except in mat ball. But - crossing the front corner and landing next to the plate is normally a ball - a very expert umpire says that geometrically a legal arc pitch which lands within the length of the plate had to go through the strike zone. Ignore the pitchers and batter complaints and get another ump to watch you.
