MLB umpires missed over 21,000 balls & strikes calls during the 2023 regular season. It was their best season ever.

Thanksย @TomHoffarth! โ€œBlue-ribbon work. If the book isnโ€™t dog-eared, bookmarked with adhesive note pages, highlighted with yellow marker and held together with paperclips by its fifth use, you arenโ€™t handling it properly.โ€ย #baseball #MLB #Sports fartheroffthewall.com/2023/0โ€ฆ

About ten years ago, MLB tested out the idea of allowing each team to pick one time in each game where a batter could swing an invisible bat and hit a home run. Some people loved it but most thought it was really stupid.

On the left: Phil Bickford is called for a balk. On the right (next pitch): he isn't called for a balk.

There are no rules in Major League Baseball requiring fielders to stand in specific positions (unless they are interfering or blocking something.) Here's Codify's post on what to do about Mickey Mantle.

Cody Bellinger hit a home run with Justin Turner on base, but Turner thought it was caught for an out and ran back to first base. Bellinger passed Turner on the bases and was ruled out. The home run counted for one run instead of two.
