I wish they had auto strike zones when I played hs and college.  If you think the mlb umps are bad, they are so much worse at bottom levels of baseball. 

I played through HS and coached travel baseball. Umpiring at that level can be, uh, inconsistent. Calling strikes is a very complex endeavor, even harder than hitting. I don't care what Werth says.
