SEC has intentionally tightened up their zone to the point where if the pitch is borderline they are calling it a ball every time. It’s not a secret, pitchers have to adjust

The people on here act like they could do a better job. If these guys are that bad…then why don’t some of y’all get out there & take these guys jobs?? Learn the craft & earn a little extra $$ on the side.

No, the umps need to be CONSISTENT with their calls…far too many times the pitcher has got a called strike on the corner and goes right back to the same pitch and location and it’s a ball when it’s clear as day it’s a strike…

Then the pitch is called a ball, ok the hitter sees that is called a ball and lays off of it and he next time and it’s a strike…

I have never seen so many frustrated pitchers and batters for both teams in all my years of watching baseball…
