Automated Ball-Strike (ABS) system. Despite recent league-wide adjustments to player heights, Judge’s height has remained consistent...
Key Details Regarding Judge's Height in ABS:
  • Official Height: 6'7".
  • Measurement Consistency: Unlike other players whose recorded heights changed, Judge is consistently measured at 6-foot-7.
  • Impact on ABS: His tall stature provides a large, unique strike zone, a factor monitored under the ABS challenge system.
_______________________________

​Aaron Judge has a wide stance. When he bats, he is shorter than his real height but ABS will look at his full actual height during a challenge while the plate umpire looks at Judge in his stance. The two heights are not the same.

What does this mean: a factor monitored under the ABS challenge system?

This new ABS thing takes an absurd baseball rule and doubles its absurdity for pitches challenged.

TWO MLB Strike Zones: in batting stance and standing VERY erect against a wall for challenges. Really.  Friday, April 3, 2026
