I don't see how pitch framing works?

Framing can be one of those important little things that players do to help win games, but having a stat involved to measure that particular skill set is BS to me.

If it could be measured why in the world would you not?

It's not even so much turning "borderline" pitches into strikes -- it's making sure obvious strikes get called strikes.

Yesterday I'm at the brand new Spring Training facility of the Braves, and it is spectacular, and I am walking around the park well before game time.  While looking down into the Braves' bullpen, there is a Coach feeding balls into a pitching machine throwing not to a hitter, but to young catchers who are obviously working on their framing technique.  Never saw the drill done that way before.
