And it shouldn't. Here's the rationale sent to us along with the rule change:

"This language eliminates any discrepancy and is now aligned with the strike zone diagram in the rules book that coaches prefer and is most commonly called on the field."

And yes, I can see the "forward armpit" better than the bottom of the sternum. I can also see someone being run off the field for calling that a strike at any level above league ball. Maybe ASA should bring their wording in line with what's being called on their fields as well.
