you are referring to last nights game vs Mich I don't agree. The overlay was put in the right place but the centerfield camara was so far off center that it gave a false indication of the lateral position of the pitch. I think this would be better if you centered up the camera. I was appalled at the lack of calls on the low strikes last night so perhaps the elevation was an issue too.
The amount of deviation caused by an off angle camera is a concept many people can not grasp. Prime example is the foul ball Brennan Breau missed in the SEC tournament against UF.
If you line the camera up dead center the pitcher is in the way. Thus the camera is probably 5 or more degrees off center. The greater the distance from home plate to the camera the greater the illusion.

The issue should not be the box. The issue should be the terrible umpiring by these crews. Major college softball should have better officiating than what I have seen this week.
