Narrow Strike Zone
Muchlinski, who umpired home plate in the Twins-Athletics game must have a narrow strike zone. Santana issued four walks in six innings, and Gaudin gave up five free passes in five innings. Neither of these pitchers usually walk many. Despite the five base on balls, Chad only allowed two runs, and the bullpen made it stick as the A's took the game 4-2. In their four innings of work, the Oakland bullpen did not allow a hit, but did walk two.

You are right about the narrow strike zone. There were some pitches called strikes Saturday night not called this afternoon. Both pitchers lost some strike calls that made a difference.
