re: Japanese pitcher throws crazy eephus pitch

The STRIKE ZONE is that area over home plate the upper limit of which is a horizontal line at the midpoint between the top of the shoulders and the top of the uniform pants, and the lower level is a line at the hollow beneath the kneecap. The Strike Zone shall be determined from the batter's stance as the batter is prepared to swing at a pitched ball.

Definitely 3-d. It's a 5 sided (maybe 4 sided depending how you interpret it) geometrical shape.

And that was certainly a strike.
