If the ball isn’t delivered on time, it’s an automatic ball, and if the batter is not ready, it’s an automatic strike. Also, having been a contact hitter with no power whatsoever when I played major league Baseball, it does bother me to see the number of swings and misses and subsequent strikeout ...
