All the other umpires started doing Angel Hernandez impressions this year, so Angel decided he had to out Angel himself to keep his reputation up.

AsucaHayashi posted... and the last one was such an obvious ball that its evidence hes either corrupt or incompetent, right? Incompetent. Hes horrible. Fucks up a lot of calls for someone at the pro level. Fun fact: In 2001, Steve McMichael (recent hall of fame inductee for the Chicago Bears) sang Take Me Out To The Ball Game during the 7th inning stretch at a Cubs game. Angel Hernandez had been making his usual bad calls (yes, 23 years ago) and McMichael called him out in front of the entire stadium, and booed him.

He's 62 years old. That's retirement age. He should retire now and or be pushed by outside forces to retire soon. He's a black mark on baseball and the faster he's gone from the sport the better.
I'd also prefer not to replace these umps who are on their way out, so that someday MLB can roll out robots to fill the positions of calling balls and strikes. --- "Never confuse a single defeat with a final defeat." - F. Scott Fitzgerald ... Copied to Clipboard!

He's a black mark on baseball and the faster he's gone from the sport the better.The umps aren't going to be replaced though. They just won't be actually calling balls and strikes. You'd still need one behind home plate to actually relay that information. And most umpires are pretty decent. They're just rarely perfect. I wouldn't want them to lose their jobs just because they're human and bound to make errors.

He's just complete filth and makes calls based on emotion. I'd hate it for all the good umps out there, and there are really a lot that are fair and mostly consistent, but i'd like to see the computer umpires introduced and the human element taken out of this.
What he did, what the OP posted, is inexcusable and embarrassing, and he's done this his entire career. Fire him, they literally have video proof of every game where a player did something he didn't like and he followed it up with a terrible, game-changing call. Let him try to pull the race card, there is enough evidence over the years to overrule that in modern times imo. This is an instance where he is recorded on video during every moment that he is working, it's all out there to be reviewed. --- I see the world through Fibonacci sequences and double dutch ...

Really the worst part about Hernandez is him throwing fits when players get mad at him for his shitty strike calls. Like when he tossed Kinsler.
Kinsler gets a strike called on a pitch he knew for damn sure wasn't a strike, then when the pitcher throws an entirely obvious ball he turns around to basically say "Is that strike two or are you gonna call that one a ball" and the Hernandez gets mad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pA37NbWEnIU But yeah a 78% strike call rate is almost as bad. --- "You're made of spare parts, aren't ya, bud?" ...
