Ozuna striking out without seeing a SINGLE strike is mind-boggling
the fact that he kept his cool in after that is unbelievable, props to him for that
karma tbh
He couldn’t keep his cool around his girlfriend tho
@@ashtonb561 for what?
@@benmcclintock7398 💀
Can’t have a ‘worst calls’ compilation without Angel Hernandez
He's the first one they should fire. He's HORRIBLE
Umpires need to be held accountable and made to address the media
Things would change real quick if they had to do post game questions and interviews
"Oh yes, why did you call that ball in the 5th inning when Pujols was 2-2 a strike?"
Not sure that does anything with balls and strikes:
Media: "Mr. Ump, why did you call that game-deciding pitch a strike when it was a ball?"
Ump: "It looked like a strike to me"
@@probaddie456 as with anything in life. You’ll perform a duty differently if you know you’re held accountable. If you know you can mess up with no repercussions. Then who cares
@@joshx413 I can only see this being helpful in cases where an ump consistently turns in below-average performances game-over-game. But fear of "being held to account" isn't going to help anyone see pitches better. That's a fundamental problem of human perception.
When batters know the strike zone better than the umpires.
They think that!
💯
@Brandon Lynch that’s correct
@Brandon Lynch 😂😂😂 my parents came to every game that I played in HS and college. Now they come to watch me umpire! So I had coach have a response like you and say “No one came here to see you, you know that right”?! I laughed and then point to my parents and said “they did!” He got red in the face and walked away!
Do me a favor and tell me what rule number 1 says in the official baseball rule book. Come back and comment!
@@socialumpire rule book is irrelevant to his comment about how umpires effect the outcomes of games 😂 no chance you can defend nearly any call in this video
Ozuna striking out without seeing a strike is disgustingly hilarious
3:09 this Ozuna AB is insane! 3 clear balls all called strikes, just awful!
that's what he gets for being a piece of shit
lmao dude was straight racist
imagine being that bad at your job and being able to eject the guys pointing out what a terrible job you're doing.
Do you cry over hitters swinging at balls and looking at strikes too or just umpires? Hitters job is to hit so if they don't hit .1000 you should cry over that bc it's so easy and nobody should miss. Do you cry over fielders too who make errors yet mistakes should never happen bc it's their job not to miss right? I'm confused do you also cry over cat hers framing which is meant to fool an umpire? Kinda seems dumb you whine about umpires doing their "job" when mistakes happen you lmfao ☠️🤣
Agree,
Castellanos definitely had the funniest reaction lmfao
You know it’s a bad call when the ball is both low AND outside.
We do need computer umpires now. The demonstration in game with Jasson Dominguez was a perfect thing to have in high level games and not just triple a
It won’t happen until it’s tried and proven at the minor league level to the point of getting the 3D aspect of the strikezone. One thing you gotta know is the TV zone is only 2D
@@socialumpire not true. They have 3d models on tv
@@dominusdelupis3045 the 3D models are after the fact and not an accurate representation of the zone. It’s never calibrated to the batter and every 3D model looks the exact. No two strike zones are the same. They have to figure out how to accurately use Questech in game real time to calculate PX & PZ scores to use the computer in game!
Fuck that it’s already bad enough they extended the playoffs just bring up the umpires from minors that are more accurate and swap them with the shitty ones in the mlb down to minors
@@caseymurray4195 there’s a thing called a union that doesn’t allow for this mindset. If it wasn’t for the union umpires would get fired everyday just because of public opinion
That Jays vs Sox game was a Doug Eddings legacy game, absolutely brutal
Bro Schwarber literally looks like George Costanza freakin out about something 😂
haha that's what i loved about his tirade. he wasn't in any way threatening, he was just done with the umpire's incompetence.
Scherzer sequence at 6:25 is fucking hilarious
Lol he didn't even see the pitch but gets thrown out for it
Respect to Peña for just walking away
hes a better guy than me just off that, but then again he is just a rookie so under those same circumstances i would also just walk away and beat up a pillow
@@ykJvacano Most rookies don’t. Rookie Bryce Harper would’ve gone to his house and held his children at gunpoint
@Brendon Buffaloe i mean most rookies dont want the bad name as just a rookie, even though its a bad call its 1 strikeout out of the many to come fir him
@@ykJvacano plus peñas a pretty timid guy
It's embarrassing how confident some umpires are in their incompetence. You would think they would watch tape of their mistakes and get better. I understand that it is very difficult to determine exactly where a ball is when it's travelling so fast...but some of these umps need to improve. I can see an inch or two off the plate...but some of these are missing by 6 inches or more.
u r assuming that they give a f#$%^. i think they are paid to suk
Alternate title: Angel Hernandez’s Greatest hits
3:33 oh hell nah even the catcher was shocked
The catcher was about to toss the ball back to the pitcher😂💀
I mean to be fair some of these were framed VERY well. But some are inexcusable.
The entire logic of framing is stupid tho. The strike zone is over the plate not the catchers mitt lol. I shouldn’t complain the Yankees have one of the best framers in the league but it’s still dumb
@@kentkuduk3108 it’s quite literally impossible for the human eye to judge from the plate to the glove. An 80mph pitch would give the umpire 0.03 seconds to determine that.
lots of people don't understand just because the ball is off the rectangle strike zone projected on TV doesn't mean it didn't get the plate. very first pitch in this vid for example, anyone with a brain can tell because it crossed to the right over the plate, it was a clear strike from the umps perspective.
@@RobL350
The umpire isn't even directly behind the plate. They're looking at it from a skewed angle over the catcher's shoulder. Balls that go wide right or wide left should be easy to spot if they _don't_ cross the plate.
And then you have Angel Hernandez whose strike zone is wherever he feels like it.
@@AdderTude 0:02 - 0:03 this umpire clearly has a perfect view of the ball. And the ball moved from the left to the viewers right (umps left) and must of, IMO clearly, crossed the right of the plate from camera angle's perspective (umpires left).
They should show the Umps where the pitch was on the big screen and make them apologize after a terrible call
more mocking would help the game....just sayin
This video deserves more views. It’s really well put together. ❤
thanks
That call Strikeout call to Contreras at 1:29 doesn’t even look bad anymore when compared to the few that came before it in the compilation, and that’s saying something
Nobody expects a home plate umpire to be perfect every game, but these misses are absolutely brutal. Makes you wonder how the players manage to hold their tongues so often. If a wired court is good enough for tennis, then why won’t baseball go to a wired plate so that the strike zone is not only consistent, but totally accurate. The human element be damned…
Wade Boggs would have struck out 250 times a season, if umps called pitches like that back then.
This is why robot umps are on back order!
@CableTvTomato get a life
the funniest thing is to see the catcher going to throw to the pitcher back then change to 3rd baseman
Little League Umps:
"Wait those are supposed to be called balls?"
1:50 Respect to Jeremy Pena, he didn't argue at all.
These umpires need to be publicly shamed into explaining how these calls keep happening, whether it is incompetence or malice.
put em out to pasture and see how they like f@#$n alfalfa
I would not be able to hold me cool. When you’ve worked so hard to get to this point and you’re trying to win your city a world series… this is unacceptable
Just like if you get payed to hit like you should never miss or look at a strike or swing at a ball. You should be hitting .1000 since umpires shouldn't miss either. Especially fielders too like if you make an error that cost your city wins then you should be thrown out bc mistakes can't happen ever
Angel wonders why he doesn’t ump in the playoffs
Ah yes, another Angel Hernandez montage
I still don't understand why he continues to have a job.
And I'm pirate ejecting someone before the home plate meeting is impossible. The umpire literally does not have control of the game until the home plate meeting. You could literally talk as much s*** as you want to an umpire all the way up until that point, but until then the umpire has no power whatsoever over the game. It's kind of surprising how MLB umpires don't even know the rule book.
You really see how pathetic they are when they turn to a heckler in the stands and try ejecting _them_ from the game.
The Ozuna strikeout without a single strike was the funniest one to me. In part because I’m a Braves fan that lost all sympathy for him.
How does Angel Hernandez still have a job?
The union, which has far too much power over the league. The quality of officiating has really slipped ever since the union was formed.
1:55 was a beautiful frame job
that ozuna strike out is crazy
Wow, these are baffling. Imagine being one of these umpires and being shown this. I umpired college ball and never had a bad call like these. I feel sorry for them.
Suggestion: Could you also do worst Ball calls?
Yes
i love the channel name
We need a worst calls by Angel Hernandez in 2022 soon.
That video would probably be 9 hours long in runtime.
We only have so much time in a day
@@powerrangersexplained It would be a good video to watch though.
@@joshuafrizzell3494 lol yeah very true
The fact that the MLB isnt doing anything about this really aggravates me. These calls are absolutely wrong and nothing happens. The home plate umpire in game 2 of the WS just called a perfect 100% accurate game. IT CAN BE DONE AND SHOULD BE THE STANDARD.
They should suspend hitters too who miss strikes and swing at balls, like they get paid to hit there is no reason they should ever miss or make a mistake since umps aren't allowed to either, definitely should hit an easy .1000 never chasing a pitch. Then we can fine catchers who frame to fool the umps. Then after we should fine the fielders who make errors bc they get paid to make plays and no mistakes are allowed just like umpires.
Okay people. The little white box that appears on the screen is not always an accurate representation of the strike zone, neither on the corners nor at the top and bottom. Additionally, the dot that appears is not an accurate representation of where the ball crossed the plate, which is critical in determining pitches on the corners. These graphics are creations of the TV networks. If the technology were that good it would be used in place of human umpires.
Yes, we should keep letting them get away with calling strikes that are almost crossing the batter's box instead of the plate.
Or you could just totally miss his point and be a dick. That works too I guess. No shit, some of these are close, but the ones that are a half a ball outside look WAAAAAY closer live and without that little white box there (fyi the umpires don’t have that box as a reference). He’s saying the strike zone is 3D, not a flat box. The ball can hit the zone and then land in the glove outside the zone
When this guy only had 200 subs I new he would get 1k very soon
What we need are glasses that you put on and it’ll show an animated strike zone. We also should get about 3 strike call challenges.
It’s the way the umpires act afterwards that makes you think it’s all rigged
It might be time to get rid of home plate officials and replace them with something else. 😂
Like seriously. Do they get their paychecks reduced with these bad calls?
True I think we should also get rid of hitters too and use robots, just like the umps there is no reason they should miss a strike, swing at balls, and not hit .1000 like it's their job to hit so they aren't allowed to make mistakes that change the game. Same with fielders we need robots and take their pay bc no way should any human getting payed to field ever make and error or mistake in the field that could hurt their team. Crazy how dumb people sound when you realize mistakes happen ☠️🤣 like you're crying over only umps why
If the home plate umpire calls a pitch a strike you need to accept it and move on
I’m old school. I love the human element that permeates the game of baseball….or at least used to. MLB was much more enjoyable years ago.
I saw Angel immediately and said "Yeah that tracks."
Two things in MLB now. ZERO accountability for MONEY and ZERO accountability for awful Umpiring. It's 2023 and it has NEVER been this terrible. Egos are completely out of control and the Puppet Commissioner is absolutely ZERO help. The only recourse is for people to walkout or just not go.
Great vid but missed all the strikes called on Judge below his knees
Specialized glasses with strike zone frames on them may be a serious need for some visually impaired umps
I would love to see the percentage of times a player is thrown out because of a blown call as opposed to a correct call.
That's what I was thinking. Someone could make a video of the many times batters throw temper tantrums when the umpire is correct.
if u did u would never watch the crooked game again. it is so obvious
The Ozuna one was the worst. Literally nothing he can do. Its not even like they were all in the same spot so he couldve adjusted to the umpires zone
Haders face on the schwarber pitch says it all
part of this problem is umpires follow the wrong thing and that is the catchers glove and not the ball if and when it cross the strike zone
Nothing like a B.S. ejection on top of a B.S. call. Win-win, baby.
Those infuriate me, bro
This current World Series & post season has been like this
If they're not going to use technology to get calls rights, change the pay structure for umpires...
Pay them $1000 a game minus $100 for every pitch they call incorrectly
and if they get more than 10 wrong they gotta pay up 😂
they have to bring in the automated strike zone and make it so umpires are not immune to discipline and heavy fines for terrible calls no matter what they are! like A.J pierzinski said to an ump..'do you have any balls in that bag that you can see"?
Credit to the catchers with framing on some of those pitches, the ump’s can’t see what we see, but some of those are absolutely egregious. Especially the ones in the bottom of the ninth with RISP, straight up blowing games. Absolute joke. Can’t wait for robo umps and challenges on strike calls to put these clowns in their place.
Even as a Marlins fan some of those calls were really bad for our opponents like how can you call some of those pitches strikes when the ball is clearly like full seven to nine inches off the plate doesn't even make sense at all.
I understand that some of it is catchers framing the pitch but I still believe we need the computer umps behind the plate
Here after the perfectly called game in the World Series just so I can appreciate it more
There is zero need for a home plate umpire with today’s technology. Especially with all these blunders.
1:54 framing job is amazing
the covid games were the best! no fans so you could hear exactly what they were saying 🤣🤣
I love how it's mostly against the phillies
"On the outside edge and it was six inches outside."
You make one really bad call in a game, it is fine, people make mistakes. However, some of these umps made horrible call after horrible call and even losing the game for some of the teams.
Exactly
3:33 we need all arguments to be mic'd from here on out
It’s so funny to me that sometimes the ball is so outside that the Cather will frame it and it’ll still be outside the box
those sequences with the jays, at some point, the players just got to get themselves all thrown out as an act of protest against gross incompetence.
If you fine the umpires for every bad call trust me they'll get better real quick.
no need for balls and strikes called by humans. use digitial. the tech has long been around.
I was brought up on baseball but do not watch anymore because of this bs.
That’s like fining players for every strikeout. Stupid. They’re gonna make mistakes, they see 300 pitches a game
Teams should have the right to appeal at least a couple of calls per game. It shouldn't take too long as it is displayed in the virtual strike zone after every pitch.
Angel Hernandez's Greatest Hits
I suggest you SWING at the ball! Haha
I don’t blame Schwarber for getting mad at the beginning
its just funny hearing the announcers reaction
Umpires themselves are making the case to go to some sort of automation calls behind the plate. I believe they are still needed on the field but home plate? Not really. Plays at the plate can easily be settled by replays.
1:44 I like the dude that just walked away without arguing, alot of these players would just chew people out especially me, I would get so mad that I would throw I bat at the umpire.
I get the whole “dropped third strike” rule where you can run, but what about being able to challenge called third strikes that are clearly balls, I mean if it’s right on the black, dead outer edge of the strike zone that’s one thing be aggressive and choke and poke that ball but if you see as a coach the catcher clearly have to frame the ball 6,7 or even 8 inches or more off the plate it should be a thing where you can be like, “I wanna second opinion from replay”. I know it probably doesn’t make any sense but that’s just my opinion
Problem is, you could have filled up hours upon hours of pitches similar to these on the season. It would be one thing to call a corner strike and then call a pitch just off the corner a strike, but too many times a pitcher can throw the ball in the same location 4 straight times and have the count be 2-2. As a pitcher and a hitter, that makes your job harder. If a guy behind the plate is consistent, you can adjust, even if it is adjusting to balls being called strikes and strikes being called balls. Consistency is the key. But these umps nowadays are nowhere near consistent, other than the idea of being consistently bad.
You have to get the sense these umps know they will not be punished. With technology, fans and players know immediately if the correct call was made. Perhaps if MLB starts fining umps for missed calls it might improve. I doubt it, so we might as well just implement the robo umps behind the plate.
The umpires frequently deemed many pitches as strikes due to their interpretation of how the catcher presented or framed these pitches.
1- make a bad call
2- player correctly calls you out
3- throw out that player
God these calls physically hurt me
Gabe Morales is the Angel Hernandez of this generation.
All these announcers saying, “oh that’s not even close.” Well how about you go behind the plate and see what the umps see
Very easy to tell which games the umpires have bet on. I'm just surprised the justice department hasn't investigated
Didn't show a single Julio call lol
The second one😳😳😳😳
holy shit that Ozuna at bat was HORRENDOUS
I can totally relate
when the umpire wants to eject the batter
"The umpayuaah" god damn they need to replace these corpses.
My questions is why does the home plate umpire even exist? MLB has the technology to replace them and yet still fail to do so.
We need robots and lasers asap.
You cant argue balls & strikes, no matter how terrible MLB umpires may be. Its the dumbest rule in all of sports. MLB please.
some of those called strikes were outside all the way from the Pitcher to the catcher.. These umpires are blind and trying to hurry the game up. Time to replace them all.
Should be able to fine ump.s Guarantee they’ll start making better calls if they have a certain number of ball/strike/safe/out calls. I’m think if they miss more then 10 as a ump calling balls and strike and more than 3 calling safe and out they should get fined 3k and additional 1k per incorrect call after the fact.
