You don't have a great view from the head-on angle, but when they show that overhead camera, you can see exactly how far outside the pitches are. I've seen games where they probably made 40 bad strike calls.

If they are consistent, no one is complaining. All umps have different strike zones..right or wrong. It's when they vary between innings that guys get tossed.
