Edit request from Paulyb01, 4 October 2011
Please remove "He is the first umpire in Major League history to have no eyes" from the first paragraph. Firstly, there is no source for this information. Secondly, people get annoyed at baseball umpires from time to time, however, that's no reason for libel.
