Deborah White and Justin Wolfers for helpful discussions. We explore umpires ’ racial/ethnic discrimination in the evaluation of Major League Baseball pitchers. Controlling for umpire, pitcher, and batter fixed effects and other factors, strikes are more likely to be called if the umpire and pitcher match race/ethnicity. This effect exists where there is little scrutiny of umpires ’ behavior—in ballparks without computerized systems monitoring umpires ’ calls, at poorly attended games, and when the next called pitch cannot determine the outcome of the at-bat. If a pitcher shares the home-plate umpire’s race/ethnicity, he gives up fewer earned runs per game and improves his team’s chance of winning. The results suggest that standard measures of salary discrimination that adjust for measured productivity may be flawed, and we derive the magnitude of the bias generally and apply it to several examples.
