Pitches with Usable Locations 2021

Delivered pitches that can be classified inside or outside the strike zone. An umpire call is not used to guess location. MLBDB counts delivered pitches, including bunts.

For 2018 through 2024, MLBDB estimates pitch locations inside or outside the zone using recorded coordinates and batter zone heights. From 2025, MLB's recorded zone labels are used. These locations do not describe the umpire's call.
