Real life framing is as much about not screwing your pitcher as it is about "catcher cheating".
How do you figure that? Do you figure some catchers are yanking strikes outside of the strikezone? I could see the odd call where the ump might have called a strike a strike if the catcher hadn't yanked it dead center, but I don't think there could be some catchers who are consistently yanking strikes outside of the zone.

Foolish Bailey had an interesting vid on this topic a couple days ago. It was interesting how good Jose Molina was yet he wasn't a yanker.
