re: Calls in Sports That Aren't Officiated According to the Rules

quote:

Strikes:What is the strike zone supposed to be? Is it not below the knee and up to the numbers? Because it's not getting called unless it's at the thighs. Yet the umpire can call it a foot and a half off the corner. Is this the way the game was meant to be played? Why didn't they just make the rules that way?

Yes. I have never seen an ump at the collegiate or pro level call the entire strike zone. If they are not going to do it, they may as well change the strike zone.
