      Some of them aren't even the wrong call! Number 6 was a great call on a ball that just missed the corner. Number 4 was pretty close to the corner too. Wrong call, but just barely. Umps miss calls like that literally every game.
      Angel Hernandez sucks! How can one of his 'worst' calls be right?
      I'd rather have Angel Hernandez back in MLB than let the person who edited this be a Little League Umpire.

    Angel Hernandez's retirement came after a meeting with Michael Hill, the Senior Vice President of On-Field Operations had him questioning Hernandez's ability to see and comprehend correctly. Angel got so worked up that he stormed out and slammed the door behind himself. It took Angel 10 minutes to realize he was in the closet...His announcement of retirement came soon after.

      He had two unsuccessful law suits against MLB, claiming it was racism that was keeping him out of bigger games.

    You have to have the time the Indians were playing the Athletics and there was a homerun that hit the railing above the fence then fell back into play. Even in real time it was obvious to everyone except Angel, who ruled it was a double. Oakland challenged, saying it was a home run. This was one of the earlier years of instant replay where the crew reviews their own calls. Even with the benefit of slow-mo instant replay, Angel ruled double again and Oakland went insane. It was after this MLB changed the replay rule where the MLB in New York reviews the challenged calls.

    In Angel’s defence, maybe he has an unknown/undiagnosed vision problem that distorts what he sees - particularly for objects in motion. I know from experience that it is possible although I would assume that MLB does have some objective and ongoing testing regime for umpires.

  • @bigevil66623
    @bigevil66623 Před 19 dny +2

    Okay I want to point something out on play number 7. There was a balk call that was missed...however that really isn't Angel's call to make as he is focusing on the pitch to call the strikes and balls. That is on the first base up. The strike call, while high, can be called since it was over the plate since the batter disengaged from his stance, changing the strike zone. I actually think this is more on the first base ump rather than Angel. I think to replace this, you should have the mess ups in the playoffs where he had three calls ever turned. Two were really close and could easily be missed but there was one that was really bad and deserves to see him grilled.

    • @DaDitka
      @DaDitka Před 13 dny

      I have to agree. Even as a little league ump, I knew that there had to be an effort to get out of the way of the ball in order to be awarded first base. To my untrained eye, the batter did not.
      If someone here wants to dispute that, I'm fine with that. This IS Angel Hernandez we are talking about, after all...

    Back in '22, Ohtani threw a middle-middle curve ball and Angel called a ball on that. There was at least one or two more bad call(s) during that inning against Ohtani, IIRC. The batter subsequently drove in a run and the next batter drove in another with Ohtani apparently flustered from the whole ordeal and ruined Ohtani's consecutive scoreless innings streak and cost him a win on the mound and in the final score.
    The whole world's glad you're gone, Angel.

    #3, that wasn't even his worst call that game. Earlier in the game he called a strike on Jean Segura with the bases loaded that was a knuckle burner which forced Segura to swing at crap the rest of the at bat. #4, if we're being fair wasn't a horrible call. Not as egregious as #5. and #8, when Harper tossed his helmet into the stands, the kid who caught it, Harper signed it for him.
