Postseason

The current Major League Baseball postseason consists of the Wild Card Series, the Division Series, the League Championship Series, and the World Series. In the postseason charts, crew chiefs are denoted by a † following the year. The position of crew chief was not as clearly established in the early years of the 20th century; for the purpose of this list, the crew chief for early World Series is defined as the home plate umpire for Game 1. Umpires who are active entering the 2025 season are indicated in bold face; members of the Baseball Hall of Fame are indicated in italics.^[1]

World Series

The World Series is the culminating best-of-seven championship series of major league baseball, and has been played since 1903, with the exception of 1904 and 1994. It is played between the National League and American League champions. Throughout World Series history, the position of crew chief usually alternated between umpires of the American League and National League until the two leagues umpire staffs merged in 2000.^[1]

All-Star Games

The home plate umpire for each All-Star Game is denoted by a † following the year. There were two All-Star Games each year from 1959 to 1962; different umpiring crews were used for the games in each year except 1960 (for this list, the 1960 umpires are each counted once). For all games through the first 1961 contest and again in 1966, the umpires changed positions halfway through the game; both plate umpires are noted in the applicable years.^[1]
