Retired Major League Baseball umpires have filed a lawsuit against the league claiming they were underpaid pension money, according to a report by Bob Nightengale of USA TODAY on November 5, 2026.
The legal action alleges that the retirees did not receive the full pension benefits owed to them under the terms of their retirement agreements. Specific details of the claimed shortfall and the number of umpires involved were not immediately disclosed.
Major League Baseball has not yet publicly responded to the lawsuit.
