    I keep the strike zone turned on, it is easier to tell that way. It seems that sometimes those that hit the very edge of the zone are called strikes and other times its a ball. Could be all in my head too.

    I like the way the edge of the strikezone is "fuzzy" and not that clearly defined (or maybe it's just my TV). It makes it seem more realistic than a hard edge yes/no kind of strike zone.

            It is fuzzy. I usually try to work that area, and a bit outside. I tell what I had a problem with last nite was going against a Left Handed Pitcher whose best pitch was a four seam fast ball. I find it hard to track and the pitcher was painting the inside corner with it.

                    I like the fact that the game is not programmed where EVERY ball that is technically in the zone is called a strike. I take borderline pitches all the time that are realistically inside that "box" but are called balls. Usually its on the upper or lower edges, but I like the fact that the umpires actually miss some calls.
