rainy day here in carolina so i've been spending the morning drinking coffee and capping baseball. here's today's umpires with over/unders for the last two years (2001/2000) along with what i viewed as a few other striking stats. i've chosen to look at only the last two years for comparison purposes in light of this years' "new" strike zones. it's starting to look like some umps have made an adjustment while others haven't changed a lick. anyway, here they are:
