PorkChopExpress Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PorkChopExpress Posted May 27, 2023 Author Share Posted May 27, 2023 I’m also curious as to where they rank on 3rd pitch after 0-2 count. This team does not attack the hitter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard Zelig Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 Definitely top 30 in MLB for both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 (edited) 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, 2023 by CaliSoxFanViaSWside 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
