One of the strangest things about the post-season is that they add these two umps in left and right with a very small mandate, lots of room with which they work, but they still blow calls.

Of course, but the obvious example gets the hashtag.



What eats me is they typically aren't positioned back by the wall. It's the plays at the wall — catches on the warning track with the outfielder facing away from home, and fair/foul calls at the pole, that the base umpires can't really see.



Tyrone Taylor is earning his pay on defense.
