After greeting a pool reporter knocking on the door of the umpires room Friday afternoon at Wrigley Field, Bill Miller explained his call ruling Willson Contreras out for interference after Contreras had reached on Anthony Rendon’s errant throw in the seventh inning of the Cubs-Nationals game.
A similar scenario played out Monday at Guaranteed Rate Field, where I knocked on the umpires room door and asked Angel Hernandez about a controversial call he made the day before on a game-ending strike to Anthony Rizzo.
