MLB umpires also help the Skankies win by having one strike zone for them and a different strike zone for everyone else.
See this story below about how awful Hunter Wendelstedt was behind the plate in the Twins-Yanks ALDS game.

The umpiring is so bad this year that MLB management, players and umpires will have a summit on the state of umpiring on Dec. 3 just ahead of the start of the winter meetings.

How about that extra out the refs gave the Twins in the 9th in game 1?
Quit your whining. The Yanks are the gold standard of sports teams. Just ask the Mets how hard it is to win even with a big payroll.
Watched the Rays Rangers game and the playcall from the plate umpire was bad. The calls have been bad for the entire contest. I also remember the horrible calls in the Angels A’s game last year.
Didn’t notice the Yankees playing any of those games.
