If you think it's wrong, double-tap to challenge. An ABS-style replay zooms into a 3D strike zone and measures the ball's distance from the edge in inches โ€” confirming or overturning the call. โ€ข Pitch it yourself โ€” flick to throw, re-grip the seams to pick the pitch type โ€ข Track real velocity (mph) and spin (rpm) on the stadium board โ€ข 9 innings, 27 outs โ€” read it right or take an out โ€ข Game Center leaderboards: Top Speed, Top Spin, Best Score, Best Accuracy โ€ข Name the two teams and pick their colors โ€ข No ads, no tracking, no accounts โ€” just baseball Trust your eyes. Make the call.
