April 8/2013. That was Nathan's 300th save. He had given up a run to that point in the 9th and the tying run was at 2nd. Longoria was on deck. Frustrating to watch in the wee hours.
@@Texasguy316 To you maybe, but not me. With the personnel available and the technology, and rules that would demand in game accountability of the umpire) it would easily be achievable IMO
Whenever Angel Hernandez is behind the plate and you're got 2 strikes, you know the next pitch is going to be a strike no matter where it is. He just likes to call strike 3 so he can look cool.
Unsurprisingly, alot of Angel Hernandez calls there. And he wonders why his discrimination lawsuit, which he filed because he hasn't been assigned to a World Series in a while, was dismissed.
Always think about that. He should have been embarrassed that the league argued he was to incompetent to work the post season. He has no shame over how bad he is.
I pitched a lot and you don't want to telegraph your delight with the generous strike zone or else the ump might retaliate by calling some balls that are hitting the strike zone - kind of like how umps call strikes against batters showing them up at the plate.
I don’t know why the umpire can’t see the catcher framing the pitch, when he moves his glove 18”. That should tell them right then, it was out of the strike zone.
Every time an ump gives the "toss" gesture to a player after they react to a bad call, I always want to see the player make the "toss" gesture right back at them lol.
My question is, if we are capable of mapping whether a pitch is a strike or ball in real time like they do in these videos. Why even rely on an umpire that brings in such a high margin of error?
It’s simple. See ball hit ball. You’re only going to get one good pitch per AB. When a hitter has 2 on ‘em, you have to shorten up and protect. Don’t leave strike 3 up to ‘Blue’. Most, but not all, of the called 3rd strike looking, were close enough for the hitter to make an attempt. And, a lot of nobody’s begging for calls. As a hitter and pitcher, you’d better have proven you deserve the corners. Unless Angel Hernandez is behind the plate. Then, protect your ass.
Note how many of the $hit calls are from Hernandez. Horrible umpire. Also note the number of times an umpire rings up a player is with the count full and the player knows it is a ball and starts heading to first. It's like the umpire does not want you to be calling the balls and strikes so he will call you out if you start heading to first.
As an umpire, it's very easy to judge balls and strikes from your couch on your TV, when youre judging if 99 is an inch or not off the plate, sometimes you're going to miss calls
It is a hard job... The umpire dont have a visual box or a slow motion replay ... Sure they are some weird strike calls but see it that way ... If you see like 300 pitches in one game and you miss 3 calls your calls were right 99% of the time ... Angel Hernandez is an extreme
Umpires back there: “Goddam, baseball is so boring… I wonder if I look cool on TV.. oh shoot, did I forget to turn the stove off?? Wait, I don’t have a stove… oh dang, haven’t called a strike in a few minutes-HYAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!! There we go, I’m totally making a difference”
I was at the ranger game against Tampa and half the stadium was going nuts and the other half went “WHHHHAT?!” That will never not be the worst third strike call to end a game. Even as a ranger fan I can objectively say how horrible that call was.
I understand hitting the box but ones that aren't even near that box is crazy and the batters have all tge right to get angry even the pitchers when it's clearley in the strike zone.
5:13 was the worst ball/strike call I've ever seen. I'm a Rays fan in Dallas, I was at the game, and if it hadn't been the second week of the season I would have been enraged.
what a badass move to have a horrible strike out call and just turn and walk to the dugout, composure in the face of bullshit, late new years resolution for me
Any video with this title that does not include Livan Hernandez in the 1997 world series is misnamed. He was getting calls that were half a foot off the plate.
With all the technical stuff they have to mark where in the strike zone a pitch goes in real time, why in the hell are they still letting a person make these calls? Why do that?
The reason why there’s no accountability for umpires is because if they just started sending them down based on performance, there’d be none left in the majors😂
These calls are so bad does MLB even review these? I remember Joe West would have a strike zone for Every inning and Angel as well. They make a mockery of the sport
BAFFLING. If you argue against a wrong call, you also get tossed out of the game! If that isn't the most oppressive regime, then I don't know what is. For once I'd like to see a batter actually toss an umpire out of the game lol.
5:20 You know it's an awful "strike" call when the pitcher is genuinely surprised.
April 8/2013. That was Nathan's 300th save. He had given up a run to that point in the 9th and the tying run was at 2nd. Longoria was on deck. Frustrating to watch in the wee hours.

ok calls that are touching the line can’t be considered “worst calls of all time”
I was about to say that
Most of these are not close and not touching the line
When they're paid $245K to start as rookie umps, that opens the door to the recriminations.

“he never had a chance in that at bat.” & “strike 3 called! if you say so!” made me belly laugh
You know you're in for a treat when *both* Angel Hernandez and CB Bucknor have their own segment.
This is how every pro sport is rigged
アメリカの審判は職権乱用しすぎ。
自分達は神様だ！と古い慣習がまだ蔓延っている。
The fact that there's zero accountability for these horrible umpires is mind numbing
They get graded. That's a key metric in whether or not they work playoffs or WS games.
@@coachwilson5967 They shouldn't work in ANY games, not behind home plate
@coachwilson5967 ah yes, the grading system, that is working wonderfully to make the umpires accountable for a horrible job
Some bad calls yes, but who exactly are you replacing them with? Triple A umps aren’t gonna be any better
@andrewreid895 can't be any worse than angel hernandez and cb Buckner
Sometimes I think they need to send umpires down to the minors based on performance like the players do... Some of these are brutal
You can thank unions for fucking this up. Same thing happens with road work.
Angel can't be moved because of the color of his skeeeeen.
3:37 he called that a strike purely because Chisholm bat flipped the obvious ball 4/walk.
Horrible umpiring.
That’s the kind of stuff I think umps should get fined for. So what if the player does that? A ball is a ball.
@@anthonyvega-fujioka4464so you’re blind
How are theses not umping HS baseball.
5:12 is nothing but the ump being ready to get off the field inexcusable
Even Joe Nathan was in disbelief haha.
Yeah it was a full count and the pitcher instantly knew it was going to miss low and outside based on his reaction - and then he gets a strike lol
Way low and outside...wow
Whenever Angel Hernandez is behind the plate and you're got 2 strikes, you know the next pitch is going to be a strike no matter where it is. He just likes to call strike 3 so he can look cool.
Which is ironic, because his strike call looks absurd!
strike！！🤜👉batter out！😤
Pitcher in an 0 and 2 count: spikes the ball into the dirt and bounces it right over Angel's head.
Angel: "Yup, looked like strike 3 to me!"
Angel Hernandez thought that the naked gun umpire scene was a training video.
Angel Hernandez we will never see the end of him really
I think we actually have. I don't think I've seen him umpire a game in months
@@leifopstad2972 He has made some terrible calls on bags too .... but thankfully that is usually re - playable.

Every one of the pitchers' faces tells you they know they got away with one lol
That is the funniest part of these videos when you see the pitcher and other players doing the "woah" face .
The Rangers pitcher was like wow.😂

This video should just be titled Angel Hernandez best calls
He’s the worst
I think it would be a great idea if the MLB offered Angel Hernandez a bunch of money to retire.
C.B. as well..And don't forget Diaz...
This comment aged gracefully
@@tylerfortier2666 hahaha
5:13 I've seen a lot of bad called 3rd strikes, but this is by far the worst
You can see the pitcher say wow that’s how bad the call was
Outside ball fo, called strike 3.
Holy shit thats bad😂
the technology is here to call balls & strikes with much greater accuracy then humans. 99.4% accuracy. Just MLB refuses to use it. 😢
10 minute Angel Hernandez highlight reel.
7:34 best hitter reaction to a ball that is called a strike.
Who's here after the Angel Hernandez debacle last night?
You know you’ve made an outrageous call when the person the call is benefiting goes “WOW”
Pitcher: Was that pitch too high or too wide? Ump: It was too in the middle.
I bet Ohtani said, "You better give me that pitch".
Schwarber going to battle with Angel Hernandez on behalf of both teams is legendary.
Baseball could use a version of VAR used in soccer. A 2nd home plate ump could overrule the active ump to prevent these kind of bad calls.
When the call is so bad that the batter is too shocked to be angry, you know it wasn’t even close.
The very first call with Kyle Schwarber’s reaction is amazing 😂 felt his pain but at least he got that frustration off his chest
Too bad this was too early to include the pitch to Wyatt Langford the other night
That’s what I was thinking!
That entire at-bat was the most absurdly umpired one I’ve ever seen
I don’t know why the umpire can’t see the catcher framing the pitch, when he moves his glove 18”. That should tell them right then, it was out of the strike zone.
Why does baseball need the umpire when we have technology ?
Tradition. That's the only reason at this point.
May I introduce the Angel Hernandez compilation everyone
Angel binge watches these videos moments before he tucks himself to sleep. 😴
Another Angel Hernandez highlight reel😂
Angel Hernandez the kinda guy to watch the film afterwards and still not see anything wrong
This is basically a angel Hernandez highlight reel 😂
Nathans strikeout has to be one of - if not, the worst call in MLB History
The officials suck at all levels,yet you are supposed to accept it. BS
the catcher framed the last pitch in the vid perfectly haha. tough call for the ump there to be fair
not a tough call for robo umps
4:30
"Come on George. We will get them with the trashcans."
Every time an ump gives the "toss" gesture to a player after they react to a bad call, I always want to see the player make the "toss" gesture right back at them lol.
3:05 "i still think he needs to pound him inside" is like the worst out of context statement to a non baseball fan if they listened to that
A lot of these are the catcher framing it well. The umps that can't make a call without looking at the gloves shouldn't have their jobs.
Angel Hernandez approved this video
My question is, if we are capable of mapping whether a pitch is a strike or ball in real time like they do in these videos. Why even rely on an umpire that brings in such a high margin of error?
Cause they wanna rigg not only matches but stats too.
5:29 This pitching data made me laugh.
About less pay on a percentage of missed calls..and more pay on over a percentage a good calls
I was at 0:57 while visiting Boston: Crowd was utterly pissed
Iconic moments in baseball. Baseball Ruth 700th home run, Pete Rose 4192 hits, and Angel Hernandez being forced to retire.
1:18 dang that umpire is HORRIBLE 😂😂😂
Who know who would be REALLY good at seeing an extremely fast and small white thing flying through the air?
OLD MEN!
Angel Hernandez… nuff said
It’s simple. See ball hit ball.
You’re only going to get one good pitch per AB. When a hitter has 2 on ‘em, you have to shorten up and protect. Don’t leave strike 3 up to ‘Blue’.
Most, but not all, of the called 3rd strike looking, were close enough for the hitter to make an attempt.
And, a lot of nobody’s begging for calls. As a hitter and pitcher, you’d better have proven you deserve the corners. Unless Angel Hernandez is behind the plate.

The 90’s version would be nothing but Greg Maddux and Atlanta Braves highlights

5:15 THEE worse called strike of all time. Even the pitcher thought it was a ball lol
Umps are either corrupt or incompetent. I'm going with corrupt.
alternate title: angel hernandez highlight reel
You can tell some of these bad calls in the 9th inning were made simply because the Umpire wanted to go home.
Schwarber went CRAZY 😭
As an umpire, it's very easy to judge balls and strikes from your couch on your TV, when youre judging if 99 is an inch or not off the plate, sometimes you're going to miss calls

my question is how do you collect all these calls from various games, teams , seasons? That would be quite a library and search
0:24 This is probably how every Mariners fan felt
The amazing thing is that most of these are from the first half of this season alone.
MLB Worst strike calls EVER...a Angel Hernandez production....directed by CB Buckner😂😂😂😂😂🤦🏿♂️

Maybe some of these umpires have big money betting on the game that we don't know about.
Ever notice the fact that most of the bad calls were made by angel Hernandez
I like how angel Hernandez was in half of this
This is just painful to watch. Why can’t MLB keep the umpires and have them call the digital balls and strikes? Very simple solution.
7:39
Sometimes we need Jomboy to provide lip-reading services for us. But other times, we don’t.

3:36 that call on jazz was so bad. When the catcher framed, it STILL was not a strike.
MLB should’ve never let Angel Hernandez be an umpire.
He 100% has made more terrible calls than any umpire in the history of baseball.
Get rid of umpires, we have technology
With a lot of these, it's at the end of the game and the ump just wants to go home.

I love the announcers sarcasm lol
When the pitcher turns around with a smirk, you KNOW it was a ball.
To be fair here, watch some of those Ump POV cams and try to call them yourselves at 95mph
These calls are so bad does MLB even review these? I remember Joe West would have a strike zone for Every inning and Angel as well. They make a mockery of the sport
