It’s the same umpire for both teams you know

I do know. I also know enough to know that an umpire that is calling balls on pitches that are actually strikes doesn’t impact every team the same way.

For instance, that umpire would give an advantage to a team that is more patient at the plate over a team that tends to be more aggressive swingers. It would also give an advantage to a team with more power pitchers vs a team that relies on location and mixing it up.

If you know anything about these 2 teams, you’d know that favors ATM on both of those.
