DeMuth last night missed 6 pitches out of 133 according to the computer, which is a darned good performance.

He also wore a long-sleeved undershirt under a short-sleeved jersey, which looks tacky at any level.
Eric Gregg was the first umpire I saw do that. Jerry Crawford also did it. Of course he never wore a coat behind the plate. I am surprised they let DeMuth do it considering over the last five years MLB has had a minor crackdown on player and umpire wardrobe, but I like it. It would be better with the blue shirt and the black long-sleeved undershirt.
