Five retired MLB umpires have filed a federal lawsuit against Major League Baseball, alleging the league wrongfully underpaid them under its umpires’ retirement income plan, according to multiple reports. Legendary umpire Joe West (who worked an MLB-record 5,460 regular-season games), Gerry Davis, Tom Hallion, Larry Vanover and Jerry Layne filed a 44-page complaint on Sept. 29 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.
