Question:

Pitch trackers allow baseball fans watching televised games to see whether an umpire made the correct call. After tracking all pitches over an entire season the following probabilities were recorded.

1. Pitch was in the strike zone and the umpire called a ball .................................................... 5.28%
2. Pitch was in the strike zone and the umpire called it a strike .............................................. 34.72%
3. Pitch was outside the strike zone and the umpire called it a ball .........................................51.00%
4. Pitch was outside the strike zone and the umpire called it a strike ...................................... 9.00%

A new umpire has just started and the pitch tracker has recorded each outcome using these codes. Is there evidence at the 5% significance level to infer that this umpire differs in his calls?
