Jerry Layne has been an umpire for 28 years and a crew chief for 24. Last night's zone was inexcusable. Any pitch on the bottom 1/3rd of the plate was a coin flip ball/strike.

He was bad for both teams, but MLB needs to get on this. You can't have pitchers throwing perfect strikeout pitches keeping the AB alive because of a wrong call


In his defense, he was concussed.

Also, if I had to guess, the pitch that Baez swung at in the 9th is way off the top of that chart

That is a pretty good indication on why it was a high scoring game.....


He called 3 strikes that should have been balls

He called 30 balls that should have been strikes
