Recently, when Ryu Hyun-jin (Hanwha Eagles) raised an issue with the Automatic Pitching System (ABS) after a game, the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) responded by releasing Ryu Hyun-jin’s pitch tracking data.
On the 26th, the KBO secretariat released the pitch tracking judgment data of ABS operator Sports2I to the media.
Previously, Ryu Hyun-jin started as a starter against Suwon KT Wiz on the 24th and recorded 7 hits (5 earned), 7 hits, 2 walks, 4 strikeouts, and 7 runs in 5 innings.
Ryu Hyun-jin repeatedly expressed his disapproval of the ABS decision in this game.
While facing Cho Yong-ho in the third inning with a 1-0 lead, the third ball appeared to be in the strike zone, but was ruled a ball.
In the end, Ryu Hyun-jin, who got Cho Yong-ho on base with a walk, seemed to be mentally shaken and gave a straight walk to Kim Sang-soo. He then gave up 3 runs in the 3rd inning alone, including allowing consecutive hits to Seong-ho Cheon and Baek-ho Kang.
Ryu Hyun-jin said after the game, “What should be a ball becomes a strike, and what should be a strike becomes a ball. “It may be different for each stadium, but the problem is that it changes from game to game (at the same stadium),” he said.
In particular, “the third pitch thrown against Cho Yong-ho in the third inning was judged to be low. However, the third ball in the 5th inning went in at almost the same height, and it was ruled a strike. He claimed, “It should have been a ball because more balls missed in the 5th inning.”
Accordingly, KBO explained through data, “The third ball that Ryu Hyun-jin threw to Cho Yong-ho in the third inning on the 24th passed the bottom of the ABS middle zone by 0.15 cm, but did not pass the bottom of the ABS zone by 0.78 cm, so it was ruled a ball.” .
The top and bottom of the ABS strike zone are applied based on the height of each player. The top is 56.35% of the player’s height, and the bottom is 27.64% of the player’s height.
To be considered a strike, both the middle and end sides of the home plate must pass through the strike zone, but the KBO explains that Ryu Hyun-jin’s ball did not pass through the bottom of the end zone.
KBO also refuted claims that Hanwha pitchers were inconsistent in their judgment of outside pitches thrown to left-handed batters in the three-game series against KT.
On the 23rd, the KBO revealed the trajectory of the 4th pitch (strike) that Moon Dong-ju threw at the plate of Cheon Seong-ho in the 4th inning, and the 3rd pitch (ball) that Ryu Hyun-jin threw to Cheon Seong-ho in the 1st inning on the 24th, saying, “As you can see in the graphic, the pitched positions are different.” He dismissed Hanwha’s claim.
