Not as long as the Yankees have Bonehead Peralta going for them.

Can't believe Froemming is allowed to work the post season,cuz he blew a call at 1st base by about a yardstick(last Friday in Milwaukee.) It was ugly.He is retiring(and he should of retired without working the post.) Don't you think if you missed a 1st base call by about a yard,then you would admit you're incompetent for post season work?

I agree, that call was awful. Was one of the better umpires, should have stepped down gracefully because MLB doesn't have the guts to keep him out of the post season.

He may of blown the one call you are talking about, but overall he's still one of the best umpires in the game. The umpires are selected based on a rating system by the players and coaches. He wouldn't be there if he wasn't one of the best.
