May 27, 20232 yr I don’t have the time for this, so I’m reaching out to all of you to answer his question for me - where do the White Sox rank in bad umpiring calls against them?
May 27, 20232 yr Author I’m also curious as to where they rank on 3rd pitch after 0-2 count. This team does not attack the hitter.
May 27, 20232 yr https://www.umpscorecards.com/teams/ According to that the Sox are getting calls 8th best of 30 teams. I don't know what all the columns mean but totFav is the main one where I got the info. This is just balls and strikes. In 2022 umpires across the league missed 7.44% of all called balls and strikes. They missed over 27,500 total pitches out of nearly 380,000 that crossed the plate without an offering from the batter. Umpire performance has remained stable the last couple of years. Overall, umpire BCR was 7.46% in 2021, almost exactly the same as it was this year. Umpires also fared much better inside the zone, only missing 6.11% of pitches in the zone. The much higher mark of 10.05% pitches outside the zone called a strike suggests that umpires preferred to have larger zones, favoring pitchers more than hitters. https://www.umpscores.com/post/the-final-call-season-end Edited May 27, 20232 yr by CaliSoxFanViaSWside
