Umpire Blunders Beta

A breakdown of all balls and called strikes to determine if they were accurate or not.

Note: As I have to draw the strike-zone myself, these may be inaccurate. If it is, let me know!
Another note: You may see more blunders here than you would on other sites. On here, I am counting every single blunder, but most sites/tools have a 1-inch margin of error.
