Silliness. I’m willing to guess that 96 per cent or better of all critical umpire calls reviewed by video show that the umpire’s calls are correct. Even the ball-and-strike calls are coming up looking pretty good. It’s the biased fans who miss the calls.

Tell Galarrago that.

I doubt he will believe you. And after seeing what happened to him I join him in not believing it.

I have seen umpires call strikes that were outside the box and call balls on pitches that were inside the box.

If they aren't blind then perhaps incompetent would be a better word.
