Whenever I feel overwhelmed at my new job, I come back and re-watch this video. I tell myself: If the world finds a place for Angel, it certainly can find one for me.
I just love that he acknowledges that it was happening to both teams. Usually guys argue “you’re screwing ME!” Or “my guys”. But Angel certainly made this game about himself.
Makes it even more endearing really. He got so angry he forgot about playing for any specific team and in that moment just let out his true baseball fan, upset at trash umpiring regardless of who is benefiting
As a Brewers fan I've always liked Schwarber even when he was a Cub. Comes from a great family, dad is ex military and LEO. He couldn't be more right, both teams were getting fucked.
Watching this as a brewers fan was bittersweet at best, good for the pitchers for all the stats due to a wide zone, but it feels like a cheap win that the brewers didn’t have much say in
@@ryandemge3959 Well put. It's hard to focus on developing your baseball team and your players if the guys aren't even allowed to play the game how it's meant to be played
@@ryandemge3959 I’m a Phil’s fan who was obviously upset at the call, but at least Schwarber spoke up for both sides. Angel was missing all night for both teams. I don’t believe we should have automated balls and strikes called by a machine, but games like this are going to give fuel to those who do. That all being said, your pitching staff was pretty nasty last night.
"It's not thirty, but it's nineteen, which is close to twenty, which if you want to exaggerate a little bit is thirty" had me rolling. Great stuff as always Jimmy
I just love the dichotomy of the two outbursts against Hernandez. Schwarber like an angry teenager, screaming about the injustice, Girardi the disappointed father, insisting Angel has got to be better. Getting dressed down in two stark ways. He had it coming.
I love how Schwarber's outburst came during his last at bat so his ejection wouldn't hurt the team as a DH. Good time to let the ump know how you really feel.
I can't believe that we still haven't had a batter attack an ump after one of these shit shows. Especially with Angel calling bullshit and standing back smugly staring like he didn't just fuck some kid out of millions with a call he knows is fucked.
@@chevellechris1 "as a Lions fan" *4 months ago* Oh, brother, were you in for a whole nother level. Wish they made it to the SB instead of SF, even though it was a really good game, win or lose it is better when you can root for both teams.
I love eloquent rage, to be able to yell clearly about where he's missing and too even be able to make the point he's blow calls for both sides was amazing.
Eloquent rage. Love that. The beautiful thing about eloquent rage is that it's so satisfying. It feels so good to vent while accurately expressing your exact frustration. You can see that satisfaction all over Schwarber's face once he's done.
The best eloquent rage comes from those who are normally mild mannered. You can tell Schwarber doesn’t get that riled up often by the control of his anger.
I loved that. Like just to be clear I don't think you're specifically calling the game in their favor. You're just incredibly bad at your job and it is very very frustrating.
By far one of the most worth and honest argument with an umpire. He wasn’t just upset about him but every player who took a step in the batters box that night.
@@Inkyyyyyy. not even that. He could blow a call that ends up being the difference between someone getting the chance to get called up or not. And for MLB prospects, that's HUGE.
I just dont get what the objection is.. imagine having 99.9% strikezone accuracy? .. who's gonna complain? Catchers? Ok, so catcher's just lost a lot of their value -- but the rest of the game would be way more consistent. To that, I'd say: add more rules to make catchers more necessary, or make it so that if a catcher frames the ball fast enough, the computer will catch it as a strike. That way there's no absurd calls.. but if yknow, pitch is a little outside and ur catcher has good hands, he can "trick" the computer.. but not actually, the computer would just have an x-MS delay
@@Notesens catchers bring more to the game than just framing. The best catchers will still be valued. Maybe they’ll need to hit better to justify their place, but that’s just another positive as far as I’m concerned.
@@Notesens Catchers are actually way more involved than simply catching the incoming pitch and framing it. Yes, elite catchers have that skill down on top of everything else, but they see the batters for each team far more often than the pitchers do since most (starting) catchers will be playing the majority of games in each series (occasionally they'll have rest days or a pitchers uses a specific alternate catcher). As a result they're very involved in the strategy for each batter and knowing how each pitcher on the rotation and bullpen throws and thus how they should pitch to certain guys (outside / inside / high / low / fast / slow) as well as how the pitchers will react / deal to situations (full counts, base runners, etc) and know how to manage them (calling them to "slow down" or go out for a mound visit) That's obviously not including their reaction time for being a "backstop" for wild pitches or throwing a rope to second, while missing their own pitcher, if a guy is trying to steal a base for example, let alone their entire offensive contributions I think the biggest disadvantage, if robo-umps were put into effect, for the elite catchers, would be not being able to "play the umpires" anymore, as certain umps are known to have larger or smaller strike zones and being able to call pitches that can play to their pitchers strengths as a result Personally, I'm fine with the idea of robo-umps, but that's not necessarily going to "fix" bad officiating. If anything, it might mean more bad umps will be there because their weaknesses wont be on display. The problem is the union protecting not just the good umps, but the terrible ones like Angel and not being able to get rid of guys like him that have a proven body of work showing how frequently he messes up and for how long he's been doing it (all perfectly documented thanks to every game being recorded from multiple angles as well)
@@Notesens True, It sets the tone and when so many pitchers are throwing 96 plus with great movement it's hard enough to hit, then Umps have the last few years, consistently giving the pitchers 2,3inches low or outside, then we are gonna have a boring as hell 0 to 0 or 1 to nothing game til the 4th or fifth and players will start swinging at junk 5, 6inches off the plate.
@@garyco766 McCutcheon was nodding out of respect after Kyle got tossed after being fed up with Hernandez. He stood up for both sides being pissed off by Angel's inept calls the whole game and every fan of the game at the same time. One of the best meltdowns on Hernandez hands down. CC Sabathia's commentary on Angel not calling playoff games being needed was classic too.
I've seen highlight videos called "Angel Hernandez calls out runner for such and such" where he was actually right, because it's a fucking HIGHLIGHT for Angel Hernandez to get a call right.
20 blown calls is WAY to much. When Jomboy said it was actually about 20, I was shocked. Usually when a player goes off and exaggerates something like that, it's not even close to the truth, but 19 vs 30 claimed is not that far off. Anyways, with only 240 pitches thrown in the game, 1/12 of them being missed overall is bad.
Imagine being told in court, by a judge, on the record that you are awful at what you do. And to still have the audacity to go back out there and continue doing that awful.
The minimum MLB salary is $150,000 and the average is $235,000. For an umpire like Angel that has been in the game so long his salary is in the high 300Ks, maybe 400K. Joe West use to make $450,000.
I agree I think he’s actively making calls wrong in the game cause he knows they can’t fire him. So he just guesses. Hmm Idk dust in my eye ummm strike! Dude that was 6 inches outside.
exactly, me too. i can always respect someone who critiques officiating on both sides. hes not mad that he got fucked over hes mad that hernandez ruined that entire game for everyone involved. hate the phillies but couldnt agree more with schwarber.
He wasn't only speaking for the fans, but also for all the players that have to deal with this umpire when he's behind home plate. We should make a petition to force the Umpire Union to take action against this atrocious excuse for an umpire. Hernandez is giving all umpires a bad name with his ridiculous calls.
"He can't call balls and strikes" - he can't call anything. I remember the breakdown of him on 1st base and he got about 3/4 calls wrong. ON FIRST BASE
He did that in the playoffs too... it's ridiculous that this guy has a job in the world's premier baseball league. Umpires union is doing such a great job that it's gonna get all of them replaced by robot umps because it ensures that these dogshit umps keep their job
I'm not anti-union, per se, but why doesn't MLB just promote him to some honorary position and have him tour the country or something? Anything to get him off the field!
And just the fact that he paused and stood there for a moment before he walked off. He's usually moving immediately when he knows he has the K so you can tell instantly that he was not expecting to get that call.
If you follow shwarber you’d see that my he practically NEVER loses his cool. And his plate vision is amazing. So for him to go ballistic like this would never happen without some real cause.
Great line about Angel Hernandez. I was once watching a White Sox vs Orioles game. And after he calls a bad strike. The batter looked obviously ticked off. And the one commentator says "that won't be the last time we see a batter make that face. Angel Hernandez is behind home plate""
@@SeraphsWitnessI bet they’ve given up, at this point. Our only hope right now is for the automatic ball and strike system to be implemented within the next year or two. That way, MLB will have empirical evidence of just how bad he is. Why they don’t have it now, I don’t know, but the Umpires’ Union frowns upon firing people just for bad performance. Idiotic, because in every other job, you’d be fired for consistently bad performance.
These are around 3-5yo level calls to get them use to what’s good and what’s bad getting use to “a strike zone” and umps have to be there to call the pitches so if they are more accurate giving little leaguers strike zones constantly I don’t understand why Angel isn’t send down or fired
@@XCodes the 19 missed are based off post game, not the box during the game, as the box during the game is, as you said, not great on the vertical axis.
30 may be exaggerated but not that exaggerated, which is honestly kinda fucked. I mean, the fact that Schwarber is closer to the truth with 30 than Angel is with his probably perceived 0, is just bad.
I love that schwarber says that it was for both sides. Less pissed about his strikeout in a key situation and moreso the fact that angel completely sucks lol
@@jamesclouse9947 I thought so too at first but it looks like he points at both dugouts and the fact that he said "for both sides" instead of like "on both sides" makes me think he was talking about the teams. Plus, he had already gone through every where Angel missed off the plate just before saying that.
@@BrandenPaul2425 "I thought" is what I said meaning I thought he was talking about the plate when I heard it which is what I fucking said. At no point did I argue that he was not talking about the teams only implied that I had thought it was about the plate until reading this comment which makes more sense than him talking about the plate.
I do actually really appreciate how Schwarber doesn't just argue for himself, he sticks up for the other team, too. You know, _the one he's trying to beat but can't because of the calls._ What a gentleman (spoken with just a pinch of sarcasm but also much more honesty than you'd think).
My buddy said right before the pitch "I bet he's gonna strike out looking on a bad call and get mad and get ejected" and it literally happened that pitch. That's how predictably bad Angel Hernandez is. Not even making this up
The called strike to Segura at 1:40 missed the zone by more than 6 inches, making it the single worst ball-strike call of 2022 so far (according to Umpire Auditor).
Schwarber saying 30 is still closer than the 0 that Angel probably thinks he had… which is just sad. 30 is outlandish and yet somehow closer to the truth.
I love his reaction. He yelled at angel, made it clear he wasnt biased, made his point, and walked away without getting right up and close. Just wanted to voice his opinion
@@tonyabbett1639 The irony is that he could do that without getting punched, with one call (a call that could make or break a game, series, getting a bonus or not, etc...) While it wasn't A.H., Just ask Armando Galarraga. At least the fans haven't resulted in throwing stuff at him..... Yet.
As a Brewers fan I was cheering when he chucked his bat! Glad he got his money's worth once he got tossed, it had to be said. Angel is terrible. Everyone was thinking it, but the game was too close to risk it until that moment.
It does make me smile that no matter how competitive baseball players can be, they can all unite for the common cause of saying that Angel Hernandez is just garbage at what he does
Like Jimmy mentioned close to 4:35 mark, it would be nice if Angel was never allowed to be the home plate umpire. But that would require an “Angel rule,” in the contracts between MLB and umpires. Bring on the automated strike zone please. It will be weird but accurate while maybe taking away the importance of framing.
@@drdrew3 I'm well aware. I watched the whole game. What I mean was I'm glad he went back and voiced his disgust instead of just leaving after the ejection.
From Wikipedia: "Hernández performed stronger in 2018 than his average for 2008-2018. He averaged 19 incorrect calls a game, or 2.2 per inning." Hey, he's consistent!
"Its actually 19 which is close to 20, which is 30 if you want to exaggerate" Sounds like me explaining my wife's mindset during an argument we had lol. Never change JomboyXD
I never thought one individual could have a stranglehold over a whole league. Welcome to 2022. My goodness that was an awesome rant by Schwarbs. EDIT: About time they gave him the exit papers. "He gone, grab some bench" as Hawk Harrelson used to say.
It may be time for teams to refuse to play whenever Angel Hernandez is the ump. That would probably send a strong enough message for him to be kicked out.
This happened in 2 leagues on the same day. Tim Donaghy associate Scott Foster rigged about 20 calls for the Nets in Game 4 trying his damndest to extend the series. It was classic Stern-ball at its worst
Just saw an interview that argued Schwarbs was the right guy to make this move, cause he's generally so friendly and doesn't make a big deal about the zone, so it's like the nicest guy in the room standing up and punching you in the face. Also cause he seems to have been affected by it multiple times over the game. It was a legendary showing up of the ump.
Not only a baseball breakdown but also a math breakdown.. perfectly explained how 19 correlates with 30, excellent job all around! Basically Bizzaro Angel Hernandez
It was decided by a coin flip. Named Angel Hernandez. The Brewers were given .77+ runs by his strike zone alone, according to his score card. In a 1-0 game, if that ain't a coin flip, then I don't know what is...
Meh, I'm a Phillies fan and you guys won and I'm ok with it. The Phillies left guys stranded and couldn't push one stinkin' run across the plate. They don't deserve to win. You guys put a runner on the board. That's a win. Yeah, Angel sucks, but he sucked for both teams and the Phillies couldn't put up one single run. That was a hell of a pitchers duel so congrats to you guys.
He burned Andrew M a couple times too. He needs to get some perspective training from behind the plate before he calls the game again lol. Takes away from the integrity of the game if anything thrown within 2 feet of the plate is fair game to be a strike 😆
Seeing Schwarb call out that Angel missed calls for BOTH teams, which he did, was extremely refreshing. Would've been very easy to act like it only happened to them, but he's a class act. Something that Angel will never be. F the Union, F Angel Hernandez, and a W for the MLB for exposing this guy in front of the nation at least twice a year
I respect pipefitters, longshoremen, OTR truckers. They do tough jobs in shitty conditions and do it consistently. But this dyed in the wool, my Daddy was a union man and I'll die a union man loyalty is exactly what produces Angel Hernandez--and you all know who the Angel Hernandez on your shift is, if you're honest.
@@macblastoff7700 Unions had their place, back when workers had no rights, but these days they are just political special interests groups that have way too much power.
@@macblastoff7700 oh for sure, should’ve clarified but I was talking about the MLB Union. Some jobs badly need a Union to hold the employers responsible, but other jobs having a union just creates an Angel Hernandez
Hader's reaction on the third strike call was telling too. He turned his back and was smiling like, "Yeah Angel, you do suck. But thanks for the call."
usually pitchers will immediately leave the mound and do their little pace when they get a sure strikeout, but you can see him hesitate lmao. he knew that he missed the zone, or at least that it was questionable
My favourite part of this is Schwarber starting to walk to first before Angel's call clicks. Just the sheer immediate rage in the bat slam is beautiful.
Some facts missing. 4) He seems to hate Miami and Seattle more than other teams. 5) He seems to adore the Yankees and Mets more than other teams. 6) He may be the single worst umpire, at any level even down to peewee and sandlot, to ever call a game.
@@michaelbaucom4019 Yes it is. He stinks far worse than mere horsesh*t does, and at least horsesh*t has a functional use as fertilizer. El Diablo Hernandez has no practical functional use at all.
@@jamesjeffers7270 Right. At a pitch at your shoulders six inches outside. Or maybe you are more preoccupied trying to avoid being hit by the pitch he called strike three. Have you watched him? Have you ever played a game yourself?
At this point I can't believe there hasn't been a serious investigation into whether or not Angel is rigging games (/more likely, stats for gamblers). He just CAN'T be this bad
How did an umpire this bad get called up from the minors in the first place? That's like promoting a .200 hitter or a pitcher who has an ERA pushing 10. Was he always this bad or did he get worse with age?
@@racingphotographer8251 he gets worse in big games, but also if you yell at him (or even question his calls). Dude has an anxiety problem at best and chokes under pressure, and his ego won't let him recognize it. At worst, he got tired of being accused of being awful and went full heel. Honestly if I was accused on the world stage of being shit and everyone knew I was shit but I realized nobody could fire me... I might start taking those dirty dimez myself
I completely forgot how great, comical, and entertaining your videos are. I went to Subscribe and realised that I already was subscribed. I need this type of humour. I appreciatcha’
“And according to baseball savant, it was 19 which is almost 20, which if you want to exaggerate a little, IS 30.” Lol Jimmy is just the best. So naturally funny, super knowledgeable but totally humble and unpretentious, explains every weird rule with perfect clarity and brevity. Give this guy an hour on ESPN every god damn morning.
That was really bad. Angel continues to defend himself by arguing that " it's not where the ball ends up in the catchers mit, which is the catchers zone, it's where the ball crosses the plate, which is the plate zone" But that one was clearly high from the get go & kept on rising. There's just too many examples of Angel calling strikes where the ball clearly never even comes into "the plate zone" Angel is umping in the twilight zone.
Holy shit that was terrible. Like mind blowing. I didn’t even notice he called it a strike first time I watched it because I just assumed it was called a ball
Respect for Jomboy's opacity font level adjustment based on the accuracy of his readings. Just when you thought this channel couldn't go to the next level, it does.
1. Kyle Schwarber spoke for everyone. Well done. 2. MLB, like any business, “discriminates” against bad employees. 3. By protecting Angel Hernandez, the umpire’s union is proving to be just as inept in their judgment as Hernandez is as an umpire.
Schwarber knows the strike zone as well as any hitter in baseball. Getting to see him with my Red Sox for a half season, his pitch identification is just really impressive.
And a lot of people forget these hitters know the strike zone extremely well and can tell if its a ball or strike. That's why they don't swing on some of them because they expect the Ump to do his job. Hernandez is wildly erratic and unreliable and needs to go. 👍
Schwarber said it all when he pointed out that it wasn’t just the Phillies but also Milwaukee have been getting screwed all night. This means you can rule out favoritism and conclude that Angel Hernandez absolutely sucks at calling balls and strikes just like the MLB document states factually.
Except that Devil Hernandez does have certain teams he seems to screw more than others, and the suggestion they offered of just having him be a third base ump won't really fly either. I recall when he was at first base one game, and he called a Mariner out who clearly beat the throw. Replay proved he beat the throw by a good step and a half. And he had Lou Pinella so pissed off that he chose that night to set the record for base tossing. I believe he flung first base a good 95 feet or so. This was a man in his late fifties or early sixties and not even close to being in baseball shape that made that fling. That was how pissed off Hernandez had Pinella that night. But Angel seems to be at his worst whenever he calls games against Seattle. And this guy wanted to be a crew chief and a playoff umpire? He was not discriminated against, or maybe he was. Maybe baseball discriminates against vile, horrid and inept umpires. If so, then I say good for baseball, and boo for the union. I say this as one who supports the concept of unions protecting labor. But there is a point where sheer ineptitude MUST overcome union protections. I believe the teacher's union should protect the jobs of teachers,, but they should not protect the jobs of crappy teachers. The same is true for umpires. And the point Schwarber was making was a valid one, and one that has been true for Hernandez' entire career. He may be the worst major or minor league umpire in all of baseball history.
@@projectgraham414 I fail to see how it can be construed as an "opportunity" what Devil Hernandez thrusts upon the poor hitters forced to defend the floating area that Hernandez laughingly refers to as a strike zone.
I was there live. Before I even showed up to the stadium, I said to my friend that I wanted to see an ejection (for entertainment). When we saw that Angel was the home plate ump, we both knew that there would be a good chance of seeing an ejection. Then it happened. Fun night despite losing 1-0 in one of the worst umped games in recent memory.
The terrible call is what typically put him behind in the count and then he’s forced to swing at stupid pitches because you don’t know what he will call! This ump sucks
@@oscarmeeks9752 The one 6 inches in to Segura with the bases loaded was the game sealer. Turned a 2-0 count into a 1-1 count, and made him swing at another pitch up and in and foul out. Otherwise, with how Lauer was going, he probably doesn't make it out of the 5th, and walks in at least 1.
I was at the Yankees Redsox playoff game in 2018 where Angel was umping first and had THREE calls OVERTURNED in the first four innings. The Redsox beat the hell out of the Yankees so when the stadium cleared out around the 7th inning I moved behind first base and the entire section was just absuing Angel the rest of the game. Good times.
"Just make him the third base ump" Was a great idea until we got the Bryce Harper highlight a week ago lol. He cant even be a third base ump without messing it up.
2014, A member of the Oakland A's hits what is clearly a home run, but the ball bounced on the field and Angel called it in play. Replay clearly showed it went over the wall, hit the wall behind the outfield fence and bounced back in to play. This was 2014 when umpires did replay and Angel said the call was correct it was a double. That HR gives the A's the win, they would lose the game. That one game meant they were the 2nd wild car and lost a road game to KC in the last inning. This guy is terrible and has change the outcome of games and teams.
I watched this whole game live and you could tell both benches were PISSED. I think Hernandez having a permanent assignment to 3rd base would be outstanding.
This is going to be one of the most viewed videos on this channel. I can just feel it. Every MLB fanbase is ready to make Schwarber the Chosen One and support his noble fight
I would think to fire him they would need cause but "you just generally suck at your job" ends up being too wishy washy to meet that criteria. If he shows up to work on time every day, does the tasks he is expected to do, has a professional demeanor with his co-workers, and does nothing criminal, then the union can make a strong case that he hasn't done anything to warrant termination. For Hernandez to go they would need proof that he's throwing games for gambling purposes or something major like that. Hell the rules indicate that lots of stuff is at the umpire's discretion so the union could even argue on a technicality that there isn't wrong with his strike zone because ultimately it's the ump making a judgement call so 100% of his calls are right by definition as long as he's acting in good faith.
I love that part with McCutchen shaking his head like "nah man I'm on their side here lmao" For this one night both teams were playing against the umps
he was a cool ass dude when he was on the Cubs. granted playing for Girardi seems like it would suck, but i doubt even Joe Girardi could cause Schwarbs to descend into madness like that. Only Angel Hernandez' umpiring is capable of this lol
Chill guys don't get that heated when they're standing up for just themselves. you want to get a gentleman mad, screw over others around him. Guys like that will get heated even if you screw over the OTHER team
Legit question, why doesn’t the players association just make a statement that whenever Angel is behind the plate they refuse to play, and we as fans should just refuse to watch. It’s unacceptable how often he’s in the limelight for not borderline calls, but just egregious ones. The players shouldn’t have to defend high and low in the zone as well as inside and outside, if he favors one way, that’s fine. But he can’t expand the zone all 4 directions. I would boycott any game he was behind the plate if I was a player.
Bingo. If this is an issue with the umpire's union protecting him, then let another union put the pressure on the league to discipline this guy. I strongly doubt the umpire union has more leverage than the MLBPA, AKA the only player's union to actually win a labor dispute against a major sports league in 30 years.
He expands and contracts the zone in all directions at any time. It’s a crap shoot for the batters and pitchers. Makes luck far too high of an ingredient in the battle at the plate.
Were I the managers of the teams in the game, I would get together and collectively decide to play the game under formal protest every time Devil Hernandez was on the crew at all, because he has shown that he can screw up lots of calls from any position on the field.
Angel Hernandez is MVP! Punishing teams with questionable calls left & right. Nobody stands a chance when he's behind the plate. Absolute MONSTER of the game!⚾👑
@@jamesjeffers7270 Angel Hernandez is in the bottom 10 in correct calls this season. It's not about how much money these guys have, idiot. It's about an umpire who's been doing almost longer than anyone in the game consistently being terrible year after year.
@@CapnRiggs2k5 The fact you personally attack me for arguing balls and strikes shows your true character. They know not to argue. You have not yet learned. Enjoy your baseball while aI watch football and basketball pro's with replay. 😁
We've been running robo umps in AAA and the dynamic has changed a lot at the plate. Now batters have no choice but to just be upset with themselves when they get caught looking. Also, so far the pitch clock's actually been enforced and I've only witnessed 2 infractions; one on a pitcher and one on a batter. The fans still boo cause they haven't figured out that 6 IR cameras and a computer are calling pitches, so they subsequently haven't figured out that they're actually booing the batter for not seeing the pitch lmao
And it works right? How many did the robo ump get wrong? Because they did a study and real umpires miss like 11% of ball/strike calls. Angel is probably up there at like 20%. Lol.
I don't know...I'm still in favor of human umps. Like Schwarber said in his post-game interview, I like the human aspect where there might be a few missed here or there. That's the game. That's the human element of the game that makes the game feel real as opposed to automation running it. However, I do think the league should hold these umpires more accountable. The worst umps by call% should be shit canned.
@@goughpsmythe4979 That's called Stockholm Syndrome. Think about it this way. Imagine two years from now. It's the world series. Bases loaded. Two outs.. Full count. Pitch just misses the outside corner. Robo ump correctly calls a walk. You really going to look at your friends watching the game with you and tell them "man, I wish we had a human umpire so that call would have had a random element of chance and the other team might have incorrectly won the championship."? Of course not. Now try to think, over the course of a season, the number of important missed calls is in the thousands. You think it's better to have all of those outcomes wrong, just because there is more drama or something?
I like the added layer of a human ump, the fact that both the pitcher and batter have to figure out and play into the ump’s specific zone is one of the challenges that makes the game interesting. Angel just sucks because his zone isn’t consistent at all leaving both sides guessing.
@@runvnc208 That's the way life goes sometimes. Yeah, it would definitely suck if the call was missed, hence why the MLB usually gets the best umpires for the playoffs to avoid this scenario. However, it's an aspect that I'd still be okay with. With automation, the game doesn't feel human anymore. Also, then the catcher position becomes much easier than I think it should be.
Yeah, I think he is trying to hurt MLB with it after his lawsuit, but I think MLB secretly loves it for the attention it draws. People love to hate something and Angel provides that.
I'm still surprised Angel Hernandez lost his discrimination suit, considering the league discriminated against someone who is blind.
😄😄😄😄
bruh hahaha
my god dude lmao
Underrated comment!!!!!
Standing ovation!
The fact that the MLB has a formal document saying he sucks is priceless
His boss says he sucks at his job but still cannot fire him
The fact that MLB admits he is useless and lets him continue to determine the outcome of games makes them look as incompetent as Angel.
Didn't MLB say that under oath too??
@@steven54knights that's some serious job security. Union needs to just give this dude a pension and send him packing.
There is legal precedent that Angel Hernandez sucks
I would say Angel is going to be pissed when he sees this, but he’ll probably miss this too

Angel doesn’t see
Spittin facts
😂😂😂😂
Well he makes bad calls, so he'll probably see this and think it makes him look good.
Whenever I feel overwhelmed at my new job, I come back and re-watch this video. I tell myself: If the world finds a place for Angel, it certainly can find one for me.
🤣🤣🤣

Brilliant. 😂😂😂
Nervous about starting a new job tomorrow, and this comment genuinely helped lol
That wasn't Schwarber. That was the whole humanity screaming through Schwarber.
nice
I am the most famous man on YouTub! This is not bragging! This is the truth! The truth will set you free, dear ju
It's his fault for leaving the cubs 😩 I miss the 2016 dream team
Strike three wasn't all that bad a call
I just love that he acknowledges that it was happening to both teams. Usually guys argue “you’re screwing ME!” Or “my guys”. But Angel certainly made this game about himself.
Also mad props to Schwarber for calling out Angel for both teams...not just his AB. But the whole game for both teams.
Angel is just so bad. How he can be so bad and they still make him call pitches is beyond me.
I’ve legit never seen that before. I enjoyed it.
Any player worth a damn wants a clean win and they can't have that with a shitty ump.
Makes it even more endearing really. He got so angry he forgot about playing for any specific team and in that moment just let out his true baseball fan, upset at trash umpiring regardless of who is benefiting
As a Brewers fan I've always liked Schwarber even when he was a Cub. Comes from a great family, dad is ex military and LEO. He couldn't be more right, both teams were getting fucked.
My personal breakdown highlight: "it's not 30, it's 19, which is almost 20, so if you're exaggerating it's 30"
I agree, was just too lazy to type it 😅
That part had me cracking up because everyone knows it's true.
Best line 😆😆
The Matt Gaetz legal defense?
Not an exaggeration: Angel Hernandez is terrible, arrogant, he sucks and he has sucked his whole career.
Who’s here after Angel retired?
Used to pray for times like these🙏
Yep!
I'm here.
🎉
Truly the greatest day of my life. Though I am upset that we will be missing the primary source of Jomboy entertainment.
Schwarber sure spoke for both teams and every Baseball fan.
Watching this as a brewers fan was bittersweet at best, good for the pitchers for all the stats due to a wide zone, but it feels like a cheap win that the brewers didn’t have much say in
@@ryandemge3959 Well put. It's hard to focus on developing your baseball team and your players if the guys aren't even allowed to play the game how it's meant to be played
Truth!!
@@ryandemge3959 I’m a Phil’s fan who was obviously upset at the call, but at least Schwarber spoke up for both sides. Angel was missing all night for both teams.
I don’t believe we should have automated balls and strikes called by a machine, but games like this are going to give fuel to those who do.
That all being said, your pitching staff was pretty nasty last night.
And every member of the human race for that matter.
I love how from 0:53 on, it seems like a montage of Angel Hernandez's worst calls ever, but then you realize that is all just from one game alone.
LMAO. When you're so bad, everyone else's montage of suck is just an average day for you.
The one at 01:40 is criminal
i've been watching baseball since 1996...this was hands down the worst called game i've ever seen. without question.
@@phantomregrets The batter’s reaction at 1:55 is hilarious.
@@EncryptSpoon that was also schwarber lmao
"It's not thirty, but it's nineteen, which is close to twenty, which if you want to exaggerate a little bit is thirty" had me rolling. Great stuff as always Jimmy
It’s like that Seinfeld joke when Jerry and Elaine are in Florida. “It’s like two days, really.”
Awesome Steiner math there.
😂😂😂😂😂 exactly
Saaaame omg had me
ok
I just love the dichotomy of the two outbursts against Hernandez. Schwarber like an angry teenager, screaming about the injustice, Girardi the disappointed father, insisting Angel has got to be better. Getting dressed down in two stark ways. He had it coming.
It's not injustice, it's incompetence. Dude needs to fucking retire already.

Who fuckin’ upvoted the spammer? Goddamn it, you guys. Just report it as spam!
I love how Schwarber's outburst came during his last at bat so his ejection wouldn't hurt the team as a DH. Good time to let the ump know how you really feel.
I can't believe that we still haven't had a batter attack an ump after one of these shit shows. Especially with Angel calling bullshit and standing back smugly staring like he didn't just fuck some kid out of millions with a call he knows is fucked.
right. it's not like hernandez could do any worse the next game if he trying to screw the batter.
It was the end of the series too so in theory, Angel won’t see Philly for a while
Legend has it when Angel gets out of the shower each morning he refers to his own balls as “strikes.”
YOUR OWN BALLS ARE STRIKES would be such an epic meltdown line as your charging toward the umpire.
Fantastic!
Prime hitting material for baseball bats? I can see it.
Gonna be laughing about this for a while
Is it bc they’re high n inside?
Who’s coming back to this after we just saw Angel Hernandez being incompetent at third base now as well😂🤣
Put him out by second base, maybe dodging several baseballs every day will improve his eyesight......just saying.....😁
@@EricJohn2008can you imagine the egregious errors he would make on double play calls? 😮
Me too😂😂
I don’t even WATCH baseball, and as a Lions fan I though I new what bad calls were. Now I’m here.
@@chevellechris1 "as a Lions fan" *4 months ago* Oh, brother, were you in for a whole nother level. Wish they made it to the SB instead of SF, even though it was a really good game, win or lose it is better when you can root for both teams.
I love eloquent rage, to be able to yell clearly about where he's missing and too even be able to make the point he's blow calls for both sides was amazing.
Eloquent rage. Nice!
He said his peace, and he left. He didn't get up in the umpires face at all, he wasn't disrespectful, and he accepted the consequences. Classy.
Eloquent rage. Love that. The beautiful thing about eloquent rage is that it's so satisfying. It feels so good to vent while accurately expressing your exact frustration. You can see that satisfaction all over Schwarber's face once he's done.
The best eloquent rage comes from those who are normally mild mannered. You can tell Schwarber doesn’t get that riled up often by the control of his anger.
I loved that. Like just to be clear I don't think you're specifically calling the game in their favor. You're just incredibly bad at your job and it is very very frustrating.
Fun fact: that segura call was 6.5 inches of the plate, one of the farthest off the plate strike calls of all time
what’s even better is that calls like that only get called 5.7% of the time, and all of them are from angel
and you KNOW there's an issue if Jean Segura of all players get mad at that bad of a call
@@WaffleLover-my1hi I bet you get invited to all the things.
@@thisguy8106 That was gold
@@thisguy8106 lmaoooo
By far one of the most worth and honest argument with an umpire. He wasn’t just upset about him but every player who took a step in the batters box that night.
It was clear that Schwarber was calling him out on behalf of ALL the batters. And rightfully so. A game should not be dictated by the ump.
He also threw his bat and helmet away from him and not to him
"Make him the third base ump"
Well that went well for Phillies and Harper tonight
Angel Hernandez inventing new and innovative ways to screw up
Yes Angel will find a way to screw up.
forget that, just make him 3rd base!
I’m ok with him being the third base ump. Of triple A
@@Inkyyyyyy. not even that. He could blow a call that ends up being the difference between someone getting the chance to get called up or not. And for MLB prospects, that's HUGE.
I have to say that was one of the better freakouts.
He showed him what he was doing wrong.
Then walked off.
He also stood up for both teams. If a player has to do that, then you must have done a shit job as an ump.
And came back on for his own encore! The Players Union needs to pay his fine.
Very constructive 🤷🏻♂️
And he waited until his final at bat to finally blow up.
The best argument for robo-umps I've ever seen is Angel Hernandez's entire career
I just dont get what the objection is.. imagine having 99.9% strikezone accuracy? .. who's gonna complain? Catchers? Ok, so catcher's just lost a lot of their value -- but the rest of the game would be way more consistent.
To that, I'd say: add more rules to make catchers more necessary, or make it so that if a catcher frames the ball fast enough, the computer will catch it as a strike. That way there's no absurd calls.. but if yknow, pitch is a little outside and ur catcher has good hands, he can "trick" the computer.. but not actually, the computer would just have an x-MS delay
@@Notesens catchers bring more to the game than just framing. The best catchers will still be valued. Maybe they’ll need to hit better to justify their place, but that’s just another positive as far as I’m concerned.
@@Notesens Catchers are actually way more involved than simply catching the incoming pitch and framing it. Yes, elite catchers have that skill down on top of everything else, but they see the batters for each team far more often than the pitchers do since most (starting) catchers will be playing the majority of games in each series (occasionally they'll have rest days or a pitchers uses a specific alternate catcher).
As a result they're very involved in the strategy for each batter and knowing how each pitcher on the rotation and bullpen throws and thus how they should pitch to certain guys (outside / inside / high / low / fast / slow) as well as how the pitchers will react / deal to situations (full counts, base runners, etc) and know how to manage them (calling them to "slow down" or go out for a mound visit)
That's obviously not including their reaction time for being a "backstop" for wild pitches or throwing a rope to second, while missing their own pitcher, if a guy is trying to steal a base for example, let alone their entire offensive contributions
I think the biggest disadvantage, if robo-umps were put into effect, for the elite catchers, would be not being able to "play the umpires" anymore, as certain umps are known to have larger or smaller strike zones and being able to call pitches that can play to their pitchers strengths as a result
Personally, I'm fine with the idea of robo-umps, but that's not necessarily going to "fix" bad officiating. If anything, it might mean more bad umps will be there because their weaknesses wont be on display. The problem is the union protecting not just the good umps, but the terrible ones like Angel and not being able to get rid of guys like him that have a proven body of work showing how frequently he messes up and for how long he's been doing it (all perfectly documented thanks to every game being recorded from multiple angles as well)
@@Notesens believe it or not, catchers are actually the ones who throw out runners who are trying to steal
@@Notesens True, It sets the tone and when so many pitchers are throwing 96 plus with great movement it's hard enough to hit, then Umps have the last few years, consistently giving the pitchers 2,3inches low or outside, then we are gonna have a boring as hell 0 to 0 or 1 to nothing game til the 4th or fifth and players will start swinging at junk 5, 6inches off the plate.
"That side you missed, that side you missed, up high you miss." Legendary by Schwarber.
legendary huh...
Yea......not mad at him for it.
Fucking for both sides…it’s fucked
For both sides!! 😂
Schwarber for sure looks flabbergasted lol. A man that TRIED to not lose it on the guy but the angel just went past all the lines lol.
A year later, this is in my opinion the greatest freak out on an umpire ever 😂
They should use laser technology in stead of umpires
It's such justified anger and he calls out that it's both sides. No one but Angel would disagree.
George Brett and the pine tar incident is my all time fav.
Big brewer fan here, and I was so happy Kyle freaked out.
Schwarber took one for the team; the team being all of us. Hats off to you, man.
yea and it was the 9th inning so he was like "eff it"
Schwarber was a better Manager that night than Girardi. Joe must go
I love how he says "both sides" right off. Not trying to gain an advantage, just fed up!
@@garyco766 McCutcheon was nodding out of respect after Kyle got tossed after being fed up with Hernandez. He stood up for both sides being pissed off by Angel's inept calls the whole game and every fan of the game at the same time. One of the best meltdowns on Hernandez hands down. CC Sabathia's commentary on Angel not calling playoff games being needed was classic too.
Jomboy: “Why doesn’t the MLB make Angel a third base ump?”
Jomboy’s next video title: “Third base ump screws up the entire game, a breakdown.”
You need to add “Angel Hernandez” in the title lol
I was about to say we've seen Angel screw up games from every ump'ing position.
Angel gets checked swings wrong, a breakdown
Lmfaooo imagine
I've seen highlight videos called "Angel Hernandez calls out runner for such and such" where he was actually right, because it's a fucking HIGHLIGHT for Angel Hernandez to get a call right.
The math on how Schwarber got to “30 calls” was elite
20 blown calls is WAY to much. When Jomboy said it was actually about 20, I was shocked. Usually when a player goes off and exaggerates something like that, it's not even close to the truth, but 19 vs 30 claimed is not that far off. Anyways, with only 240 pitches thrown in the game, 1/12 of them being missed overall is bad.
Schwarber was more accurate w his claim than Angel was with his calls.
@@tempota7792 legend🤣🤣
Don't try this at home. Jomboy does this for a living.
What's angel's umping average at this year? You could make up legit stats for this guy call it MCA. Missed call average.
“It’s 19 which is close to 20 so if you want to exaggerate a bit it is 30” I love how real you are Jim.
For anybody who thinks they're not good at their job, this should be very inspiring. You COULD be Angel Hernandez bad.
I'm great at my job and he makes so much more money to fail at his...
Sigh.
Love how you stick the landing there on “could”
Apple Maps bad
It is a comfort that I am not Angel Hernandez bad
That does make me feel much better. I can finally forgive myself for those few mistakes I've made at work. 😆 And damnit I'm a good person.
Imagine being told in court, by a judge, on the record that you are awful at what you do. And to still have the audacity to go back out there and continue doing that awful.
On the other hand... If they're gonna keep paying me why should I care if I suck?
I can suck as an ump too and I'll do it for half of whatever Hernandez makes. Hmu, mlb.
The minimum MLB salary is $150,000 and the average is $235,000. For an umpire like Angel that has been in the game so long his salary is in the high 300Ks, maybe 400K. Joe West use to make $450,000.
I agree I think he’s actively making calls wrong in the game cause he knows they can’t fire him. So he just guesses. Hmm Idk dust in my eye ummm strike! Dude that was 6 inches outside.
@@2011blueman If I was making over 400 grand a year, I'd let myself go too.

Had you done what?
19 is closer to 30 than it is zero. That's hilarious...and scary at the same time lol
Hey look they say 30 is the new 20 so they must be equal right
“Make him the 3rd base ump where he’ll get less action”. Here after he just threw out Bryce Harper on a terrible check swing call.
Ha ha ha. I was thinking exactly the same. You give him 3rd base and he'll still find a way to screw up a game
He still found a way to ruin our games and make himself the center of attention with Harper last year….
I’m a mets fan but Schwarber is absolutely speaking for all baseball fans
It goes beyond the team you root for. He’s fucking each one.
There should be a video “Angel Hernandez fucking all 30 MLB teams”
exactly, me too. i can always respect someone who critiques officiating on both sides. hes not mad that he got fucked over hes mad that hernandez ruined that entire game for everyone involved. hate the phillies but couldnt agree more with schwarber.
He wasn't only speaking for the fans, but also for all the players that have to deal with this umpire when he's behind home plate. We should make a petition to force the Umpire Union to take action against this atrocious excuse for an umpire. Hernandez is giving all umpires a bad name with his ridiculous calls.
Kyle nailed the big point - there's no bias in this, Hernandez is not favoring any team, he's just BAD.
And players
been waiting for this breakdown all day
Same😂
Same, specifically made a breakdown request
Second I saw it
Fucking same. Have typed it in 4 times today, finally found it
We all were mate
The part at the end when Angel's face fades through the strike zone with all the missed calls is the best part.
Reminds me of the video where he fades out from Pete Alonso hitting his hand in his glove repeatedly because he didn’t get a hit or done thing.
hey peter, i saw that video too. can you send me the link?
What's the MLB average?
It would have been a blast to see Angel as a line judge in tennis during the McEnroe era.
You CANNOT be serious??
Ol' Johnny Mac might have finally gotten that proverbial back breaking straw and gotten locked up for physically AND verbally assaulting a judge 🤣
Omg! That would have still been talked about today!
That would be pits of the world.
"He can't call balls and strikes" - he can't call anything. I remember the breakdown of him on 1st base and he got about 3/4 calls wrong.
ON FIRST BASE
Who's on first??
But those can at least be reviewed.
He did that in the playoffs too... it's ridiculous that this guy has a job in the world's premier baseball league. Umpires union is doing such a great job that it's gonna get all of them replaced by robot umps because it ensures that these dogshit umps keep their job
That was a post game. I think it was world series. I believe he failed 5 calls.
I'm not anti-union, per se, but why doesn't MLB just promote him to some honorary position and have him tour the country or something? Anything to get him off the field!
Surprised you didn’t catch Hader’s grimace as he walked off the mound after that call. Everyone knew it was bad
And just the fact that he paused and stood there for a moment before he walked off. He's usually moving immediately when he knows he has the K so you can tell instantly that he was not expecting to get that call.
The fact that Schwarber said, "For both sides" just goes to show lol
Yeah this isnt a man thats just pissed his team is getting fucked this is a man thats pissed that the entire integrity of the game is getting fucked
If you follow shwarber you’d see that my he practically NEVER loses his cool. And his plate vision is amazing. So for him to go ballistic like this would never happen without some real cause.
Great line about Angel Hernandez. I was once watching a White Sox vs Orioles game. And after he calls a bad strike. The batter looked obviously ticked off. And the one commentator says "that won't be the last time we see a batter make that face. Angel Hernandez is behind home plate""
Dang, I didn't realize the commentators throw shade at him too. That's bad. Surprised MLB allowed that.
@@SeraphsWitnessI bet they’ve given up, at this point. Our only hope right now is for the automatic ball and strike system to be implemented within the next year or two. That way, MLB will have empirical evidence of just how bad he is. Why they don’t have it now, I don’t know, but the Umpires’ Union frowns upon firing people just for bad performance. Idiotic, because in every other job, you’d be fired for consistently bad performance.
Hernandez is right to sue. The "Americans with Disabilities Act" makes it illegal to discriminate against the blind.
and deaf and dumb.
That act does not make it illegal to discriminate against those that are stupid, cruel and incompetent, and Devil Hernandez is THAT, not blind.
Someone already made this comment, a few times you tool
@@heinleinreader WHOOSH
@@thomassteele9649 What precisely is that response supposed to indicate?
It might not be 30 blown calls, but 19 is still unacceptable at the major league level. What's even worse is he does this on a regular basis.
These are around 3-5yo level calls to get them use to what’s good and what’s bad getting use to “a strike zone” and umps have to be there to call the pitches so if they are more accurate giving little leaguers strike zones constantly I don’t understand why Angel isn’t send down or fired
He's not THIS bad usually, this was his worst game of the year
@@XCodes the 19 missed are based off post game, not the box during the game, as the box during the game is, as you said, not great on the vertical axis.
30 may be exaggerated but not that exaggerated, which is honestly kinda fucked. I mean, the fact that Schwarber is closer to the truth with 30 than Angel is with his probably perceived 0, is just bad.
@Brian Garcia de Leon 3 - 5 year olds don't get pitched to lmao. You don't get pitched to until the coach pitch half of the 6 year old season
I love that schwarber says that it was for both sides. Less pissed about his strikeout in a key situation and moreso the fact that angel completely sucks lol
Thought he was talking about both sides of the plate as in he was calling balls on both sides of the plate strikes.
@@jamesclouse9947 I thought so too at first but it looks like he points at both dugouts and the fact that he said "for both sides" instead of like "on both sides" makes me think he was talking about the teams.

@@jamesclouse9947 nah you can clearly see when Schwarber says both sides he points at the brewers dugout
exactly. he cares about the integrity of the game. good stuff
@@BrandenPaul2425 "I thought" is what I said meaning I thought he was talking about the plate when I heard it which is what I fucking said. At no point did I argue that he was not talking about the teams only implied that I had thought it was about the plate until reading this comment which makes more sense than him talking about the plate.
Came back to view this again in observance of Angels' "retirement".
me too cheers! great day for the game !
I do actually really appreciate how Schwarber doesn't just argue for himself, he sticks up for the other team, too. You know, _the one he's trying to beat but can't because of the calls._ What a gentleman (spoken with just a pinch of sarcasm but also much more honesty than you'd think).
very true. I mean its clear with that strike zone that its a complete guessing game and not a game of skill. Incredible how MLB can't get him fired.
Best way to call out someone for being dogshit is to make it nonpartisan
You know an umps fucking cheeks when someone is calling bullshit on their opponents behalf.
ok
ok
My buddy said right before the pitch "I bet he's gonna strike out looking on a bad call and get mad and get ejected" and it literally happened that pitch. That's how predictably bad Angel Hernandez is. Not even making this up
Definitely made this up

The called strike to Segura at 1:40 missed the zone by more than 6 inches, making it the single worst ball-strike call of 2022 so far (according to Umpire Auditor).
I lost my mind when he called that, it nearly hit Segura in the belt.
With the bases loaded too
Yeah, wasn't just out of the strike zone, it was in the batter's box!
Even the catcher was like, wtf?
@@tylerschroeder3722 You're exactly right. I hadn't noticed that before. Good call!
Schwarber saying 30 and instead of 19 is still more accurate than Hernandez has ever been!
Schwarber saying 30 is still closer than the 0 that Angel probably thinks he had… which is just sad. 30 is outlandish and yet somehow closer to the truth.
I love his reaction. He yelled at angel, made it clear he wasnt biased, made his point, and walked away without getting right up and close. Just wanted to voice his opinion
He spoke for all of baseball, players and fans of all teams, on that day.
I watched this game, and when Schwarber got ejected, I told myself, man, I can't wait until jomboy breaks this down.
I said the same lol
Same. It was the first thought that went through my mind when I saw that magnificent meltdown.
I think it’s safe to say we were all waiting for this one
Got home from work and refreshed and didn't see one. Went and took a shower, got out, refreshed and bam, Jomboy coming through in the clutch.
As soon as it happened last night, it was only a matter of what time today the Jomboy breakdown would pop up.
I'm just surprised he hasn't been punched yet. I hope it never happens because he's not worth ruining a player or managers career.
@@tonyabbett1639 The irony is that he could do that without getting punched, with one call (a call that could make or break a game, series, getting a bonus or not, etc...) While it wasn't A.H., Just ask Armando Galarraga. At least the fans haven't resulted in throwing stuff at him..... Yet.

As a Brewers fan I was cheering when he chucked his bat! Glad he got his money's worth once he got tossed, it had to be said. Angel is terrible. Everyone was thinking it, but the game was too close to risk it until that moment.
He got ejected AFTER he threw the bat
It does make me smile that no matter how competitive baseball players can be, they can all unite for the common cause of saying that Angel Hernandez is just garbage at what he does
Same spot here, Brewers fan. He missed two dozen calls if you ask me, and each side paid for it at different points.
Like Jimmy mentioned close to 4:35 mark, it would be nice if Angel was never allowed to be the home plate umpire. But that would require an “Angel rule,” in the contracts between MLB and umpires.
Bring on the automated strike zone please. It will be weird but accurate while maybe taking away the importance of framing.

Welcome to 2022. My goodness that was an awesome rant by Schwarbs.
EDIT: About time they gave him the exit papers. "He gone, grab some bench" as Hawk Harrelson used to say.
It may be time for teams to refuse to play whenever Angel Hernandez is the ump. That would probably send a strong enough message for him to be kicked out.
@@matthewmazzatto8003 agree, why can’t the players union and owners do anything about it. It’s a lame excuse to blame the umpires union

@@matthewmazzatto8003 it's 2022 and his name is Hernández....
Just saw an interview that argued Schwarbs was the right guy to make this move, cause he's generally so friendly and doesn't make a big deal about the zone, so it's like the nicest guy in the room standing up and punching you in the face. Also cause he seems to have been affected by it multiple times over the game. It was a legendary showing up of the ump.
This is the best Jomboy video
Not only a baseball breakdown but also a math breakdown.. perfectly explained how 19 correlates with 30, excellent job all around! Basically Bizzaro Angel Hernandez
Bro that number breakdown was 100% spot on
Yes, if Angel Hernandez were a mathematician he would round 19 to -5.
As a Brewers fan, I feel this game could have been decided by a coin flip. Sorry to the Phillie fans for the robbery thanks to Hernandez.
It was decided by a coin flip. Named Angel Hernandez. The Brewers were given .77+ runs by his strike zone alone, according to his score card. In a 1-0 game, if that ain't a coin flip, then I don't know what is...
Meh, I'm a Phillies fan and you guys won and I'm ok with it. The Phillies left guys stranded and couldn't push one stinkin' run across the plate. They don't deserve to win. You guys put a runner on the board. That's a win. Yeah, Angel sucks, but he sucked for both teams and the Phillies couldn't put up one single run. That was a hell of a pitchers duel so congrats to you guys.
He burned Andrew M a couple times too. He needs to get some perspective training from behind the plate before he calls the game again lol. Takes away from the integrity of the game if anything thrown within 2 feet of the plate is fair game to be a strike 😆
We appreciate you Brewers fans being so respectful about it

Seeing Schwarb call out that Angel missed calls for BOTH teams, which he did, was extremely refreshing. Would've been very easy to act like it only happened to them, but he's a class act. Something that Angel will never be. F the Union, F Angel Hernandez, and a W for the MLB for exposing this guy in front of the nation at least twice a year

@@macblastoff7700 oh for sure, should’ve clarified but I was talking about the MLB Union. Some jobs badly need a Union to hold the employers responsible, but other jobs having a union just creates an Angel Hernandez
I wonder if the coins were flipped and Schwarb would have been on the winning side, would he have complained the same way?
@@TheOrangeRoad Some are exactly as you described, but others, like the one formed for Amazon recently, are necessary
Hader's reaction on the third strike call was telling too. He turned his back and was smiling like, "Yeah Angel, you do suck. But thanks for the call."
Yeah it was kinda like "yeesh that was kinda bullshit but ok"
usually pitchers will immediately leave the mound and do their little pace when they get a sure strikeout, but you can see him hesitate lmao. he knew that he missed the zone, or at least that it was questionable
There was another way inside that he called a strike and the catcher double clutched the throw back because he couldn't believe the call.
Brewers win !!!! 👍
Coming back to this in honor of his retirement. Unlike his calls, he won't be missed
My favourite part of this is Schwarber starting to walk to first before Angel's call clicks. Just the sheer immediate rage in the bat slam is beautiful.
Facts about Angel:
1. He makes tons of bad calls
2. He’s not even close a lot of times
3. He’s absolute horseshit
Some facts missing.
4) He seems to hate Miami and Seattle more than other teams.
5) He seems to adore the Yankees and Mets more than other teams.
6) He may be the single worst umpire, at any level even down to peewee and sandlot, to ever call a game.
Comparing Angel Hernandez to HORSES#!T?! Insulting...to HOSRSES#!T
@@michaelbaucom4019 Yes it is. He stinks far worse than mere horsesh*t does, and at least horsesh*t has a functional use as fertilizer. El Diablo Hernandez has no practical functional use at all.
So the millionaire players and managers have to know this too. So don't give him a reason to call you out. SWING THE BAT!!!
@@jamesjeffers7270 Right. At a pitch at your shoulders six inches outside. Or maybe you are more preoccupied trying to avoid being hit by the pitch he called strike three. Have you watched him? Have you ever played a game yourself?
At this point I can't believe there hasn't been a serious investigation into whether or not Angel is rigging games (/more likely, stats for gamblers). He just CAN'T be this bad
Exactly what I was thinking.
How did an umpire this bad get called up from the minors in the first place? That's like promoting a .200 hitter or a pitcher who has an ERA pushing 10. Was he always this bad or did he get worse with age?
I wonder if schwarber was actually saying "dirty calls" instead of thirty
@@racingphotographer8251 he gets worse in big games, but also if you yell at him (or even question his calls). Dude has an anxiety problem at best and chokes under pressure, and his ego won't let him recognize it.
At worst, he got tired of being accused of being awful and went full heel. Honestly if I was accused on the world stage of being shit and everyone knew I was shit but I realized nobody could fire me... I might start taking those dirty dimez myself
He’s either just stupid in his ability to call, or he’s stupid by cheating and making it so obvious. Either way he’s exceptionally dumb.

@@robbiemize yeah bet right below name and address ESPN asks for woke status and skin color on their applications.
When he said this, literally had me laugh out loud 😂😂😂😂
That call on the Segura pitch at 1:39 is insane. That might end up being the worst called strike of the year.
That was really bad. Angel continues to defend himself by arguing that " it's not where the ball ends up in the catchers mit, which is the catchers zone, it's where the ball crosses the plate, which is the plate zone"
But that one was clearly high from the get go & kept on rising. There's just too many examples of Angel calling strikes where the ball clearly never even comes into "the plate zone"
Angel is umping in the twilight zone.
You know it's bad when the catcher looks back at the ump, confused about a call that benefits his team.
If that's Angel's worst of the year I'd frankly be surprised, he seems to miss one by six inches nightly
a year later and this is still a top 3 worst call ive ever seen 🤣🤣🤣
Holy shit that was terrible. Like mind blowing. I didn’t even notice he called it a strike first time I watched it because I just assumed it was called a ball
Respect for Jomboy's opacity font level adjustment based on the accuracy of his readings. Just when you thought this channel couldn't go to the next level, it does.
High tier content lol
Yeah but he meant translucency, the opposite of opacity.
@@kurtissjacobs5618I mean those are just two sides of the same coin
1. Kyle Schwarber spoke for everyone. Well done.
2. MLB, like any business, “discriminates” against bad employees.
3. By protecting Angel Hernandez, the umpire’s union is proving to be just as inept in their judgment as Hernandez is as an umpire.
Schwarber knows the strike zone as well as any hitter in baseball. Getting to see him with my Red Sox for a half season, his pitch identification is just really impressive.
And a lot of people forget these hitters know the strike zone extremely well and can tell if its a ball or strike. That's why they don't swing on some of them because they expect the Ump to do his job. Hernandez is wildly erratic and unreliable and needs to go. 👍
The worst home plate umpiring game I have ever seen in thirty years of watching baseball. Credit to Schwarbs for pointing out he fucked both teams.
Have you seen him on 1st base?
been expecting this Jomboy
Nice video
DO NOT POST ANY REPLY! DO NOT MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT TIMEBUCKS
Op
I'm way late but when he called that a strike at 1:42 I actually said "what?" Out loud
Schwarber said it all when he pointed out that it wasn’t just the Phillies but also Milwaukee have been getting screwed all night. This means you can rule out favoritism and conclude that Angel Hernandez absolutely sucks at calling balls and strikes just like the MLB document states factually.
Except that Devil Hernandez does have certain teams he seems to screw more than others, and the suggestion they offered of just having him be a third base ump won't really fly either. I recall when he was at first base one game, and he called a Mariner out who clearly beat the throw. Replay proved he beat the throw by a good step and a half. And he had Lou Pinella so pissed off that he chose that night to set the record for base tossing. I believe he flung first base a good 95 feet or so. This was a man in his late fifties or early sixties and not even close to being in baseball shape that made that fling. That was how pissed off Hernandez had Pinella that night. But Angel seems to be at his worst whenever he calls games against Seattle. And this guy wanted to be a crew chief and a playoff umpire? He was not discriminated against, or maybe he was. Maybe baseball discriminates against vile, horrid and inept umpires. If so, then I say good for baseball, and boo for the union. I say this as one who supports the concept of unions protecting labor. But there is a point where sheer ineptitude MUST overcome union protections. I believe the teacher's union should protect the jobs of teachers,, but they should not protect the jobs of crappy teachers. The same is true for umpires. And the point Schwarber was making was a valid one, and one that has been true for Hernandez' entire career. He may be the worst major or minor league umpire in all of baseball history.
Dude, I'm a Brewers fan, and Kyle was completely right. It was absolutely garbage on both sides. Angel Hernandez is equal opportunity shit
@@heinleinreader
Piniella threw a base 95 feet? Uh huh, and I'm Elvis Presley.
@@projectgraham414 I fail to see how it can be construed as an "opportunity" what Devil Hernandez thrusts upon the poor hitters forced to defend the floating area that Hernandez laughingly refers to as a strike zone.
Angel Hernandez, the umpiring equivalent of Heath Ledger's Joker. He just wants to watch the game burn.
It was both sides. I’m a brewers fan but God I was even frustrated for the Phillies. Every Harper K had at least one terrible call in it
I was there live. Before I even showed up to the stadium, I said to my friend that I wanted to see an ejection (for entertainment). When we saw that Angel was the home plate ump, we both knew that there would be a good chance of seeing an ejection. Then it happened. Fun night despite losing 1-0 in one of the worst umped games in recent memory.
The terrible call is what typically put him behind in the count and then he’s forced to swing at stupid pitches because you don’t know what he will call! This ump sucks
@@oscarmeeks9752 The one 6 inches in to Segura with the bases loaded was the game sealer. Turned a 2-0 count into a 1-1 count, and made him swing at another pitch up and in and foul out. Otherwise, with how Lauer was going, he probably doesn't make it out of the 5th, and walks in at least 1.
I was at the Yankees Redsox playoff game in 2018 where Angel was umping first and had THREE calls OVERTURNED in the first four innings. The Redsox beat the hell out of the Yankees so when the stadium cleared out around the 7th inning I moved behind first base and the entire section was just absuing Angel the rest of the game. Good times.
"Just make him the third base ump" Was a great idea until we got the Bryce Harper highlight a week ago lol. He cant even be a third base ump without messing it up.
2014, A member of the Oakland A's hits what is clearly a home run, but the ball bounced on the field and Angel called it in play. Replay clearly showed it went over the wall, hit the wall behind the outfield fence and bounced back in to play. This was 2014 when umpires did replay and Angel said the call was correct it was a double. That HR gives the A's the win, they would lose the game. That one game meant they were the 2nd wild car and lost a road game to KC in the last inning. This guy is terrible and has change the outcome of games and teams.
Damn this mans been holding that since 2014, I applaud you, he DOES need to go
@@i2krez He is the reason replay now goes to New York.
The more time goes in the more I think mans may be a narcissist who is incapable of admitting he’s wrong or mistaken.
I see that clip on bad umpire compilations a lot and I always skip it because it makes me cringe in my soul
@@adrianneengel8042 !...well, somewhere in this baseball mad (?) country, he's someone's FAVORITE umpire for precisely that reason.
I wanna see a player refuse to agree with a terrible ump strikeout and just go stand at first base lol
I don’t remember striking out
I watched this whole game live and you could tell both benches were PISSED. I think Hernandez having a permanent assignment to 3rd base would be outstanding.
Unfortunately, ump crews rotate their positions, so no single ump in the crew is designated for home plate or any other base.
Yeah, and you could tell someone would eventually lose their shit lol.
No catcher would ever appeal to him at 3rd either. He interjects himself into the game on purpose
Yeah, I've actually seen him make some good calls at third. I think it's a percentage thing.
I think Angel having a permanent position anywhere other than in Baseball would be outstanding. I wouldn’t trust him umping third at a tee-ball game.
Hilarious that Jomboy says to send Hernandez to 3rd, MLB sends him to 3rd, and he totally blows Harper's check swing for strike 3 😂
This is going to be one of the most viewed videos on this channel. I can just feel it. Every MLB fanbase is ready to make Schwarber the Chosen One and support his noble fight
Seriously how hard is it for somebody to lobby to get this guy fired and blacklisted?
He’s prolly doing just enough to not get fired.
Very the ump Union is super strong.
I would think to fire him they would need cause but "you just generally suck at your job" ends up being too wishy washy to meet that criteria. If he shows up to work on time every day, does the tasks he is expected to do, has a professional demeanor with his co-workers, and does nothing criminal, then the union can make a strong case that he hasn't done anything to warrant termination. For Hernandez to go they would need proof that he's throwing games for gambling purposes or something major like that. Hell the rules indicate that lots of stuff is at the umpire's discretion so the union could even argue on a technicality that there isn't wrong with his strike zone because ultimately it's the ump making a judgement call so 100% of his calls are right by definition as long as he's acting in good faith.
As an ump you basically have to kill a baby on camera with a flamethrower to even be considered for a pink-slip.
As soon as I saw this live I was so ready for Jomboy to make this a breakdown. It's what this channel is made for. Love this
I love that part with McCutchen shaking his head like "nah man I'm on their side here lmao"
For this one night both teams were playing against the umps
From what I've heard, Schwarber is a pretty chill guy, so to see him lose his mind against someone on national television is pretty telling.
he was a cool ass dude when he was on the Cubs. granted playing for Girardi seems like it would suck, but i doubt even Joe Girardi could cause Schwarbs to descend into madness like that. Only Angel Hernandez' umpiring is capable of this lol
Chill guys don't get that heated when they're standing up for just themselves. you want to get a gentleman mad, screw over others around him. Guys like that will get heated even if you screw over the OTHER team
@@skippythealien9627Girardi might be an a-hole but when he managed the Yankees players loved playing for him.
Legit question, why doesn’t the players association just make a statement that whenever Angel is behind the plate they refuse to play, and we as fans should just refuse to watch. It’s unacceptable how often he’s in the limelight for not borderline calls, but just egregious ones.
The players shouldn’t have to defend high and low in the zone as well as inside and outside, if he favors one way, that’s fine. But he can’t expand the zone all 4 directions. I would boycott any game he was behind the plate if I was a player.
Bingo. If this is an issue with the umpire's union protecting him, then let another union put the pressure on the league to discipline this guy. I strongly doubt the umpire union has more leverage than the MLBPA, AKA the only player's union to actually win a labor dispute against a major sports league in 30 years.
Because that would require a lot of cooperation between clubhouses... not gonna happen lol
He expands and contracts the zone in all directions at any time. It’s a crap shoot for the batters and pitchers. Makes luck far too high of an ingredient in the battle at the plate.
Were I the managers of the teams in the game, I would get together and collectively decide to play the game under formal protest every time Devil Hernandez was on the crew at all, because he has shown that he can screw up lots of calls from any position on the field.
Because one union is not going to go against another. There has been that "brotherhood" motto since day one of union days in America.
Angel Hernandez is MVP! Punishing teams with questionable calls left & right. Nobody stands a chance when he's behind the plate. Absolute MONSTER of the game!⚾👑
Now this was fking funny
Easy way to fix it, tell these millionaire pro baseball players to swing the bat at close pitches with 2 strikes. Problem solved.
@@jamesjeffers7270 Angel Hernandez is in the bottom 10 in correct calls this season. It's not about how much money these guys have, idiot. It's about an umpire who's been doing almost longer than anyone in the game consistently being terrible year after year.
@@CapnRiggs2k5 The fact you personally attack me for arguing balls and strikes shows your true character. They know not to argue. You have not yet learned. Enjoy your baseball while aI watch football and basketball pro's with replay. 😁
@@CapnRiggs2k5 while I, oops 😬
Here after the "check swing" on harper 😂
We've been running robo umps in AAA and the dynamic has changed a lot at the plate. Now batters have no choice but to just be upset with themselves when they get caught looking. Also, so far the pitch clock's actually been enforced and I've only witnessed 2 infractions; one on a pitcher and one on a batter.
The fans still boo cause they haven't figured out that 6 IR cameras and a computer are calling pitches, so they subsequently haven't figured out that they're actually booing the batter for not seeing the pitch lmao
And it works right? How many did the robo ump get wrong? Because they did a study and real umpires miss like 11% of ball/strike calls. Angel is probably up there at like 20%. Lol.
I don't know...I'm still in favor of human umps. Like Schwarber said in his post-game interview, I like the human aspect where there might be a few missed here or there. That's the game. That's the human element of the game that makes the game feel real as opposed to automation running it. However, I do think the league should hold these umpires more accountable. The worst umps by call% should be shit canned.
@@goughpsmythe4979 That's called Stockholm Syndrome. Think about it this way. Imagine two years from now. It's the world series. Bases loaded. Two outs.. Full count. Pitch just misses the outside corner. Robo ump correctly calls a walk. You really going to look at your friends watching the game with you and tell them "man, I wish we had a human umpire so that call would have had a random element of chance and the other team might have incorrectly won the championship."? Of course not. Now try to think, over the course of a season, the number of important missed calls is in the thousands. You think it's better to have all of those outcomes wrong, just because there is more drama or something?
I like the added layer of a human ump, the fact that both the pitcher and batter have to figure out and play into the ump’s specific zone is one of the challenges that makes the game interesting. Angel just sucks because his zone isn’t consistent at all leaving both sides guessing.
@@runvnc208 That's the way life goes sometimes. Yeah, it would definitely suck if the call was missed, hence why the MLB usually gets the best umpires for the playoffs to avoid this scenario. However, it's an aspect that I'd still be okay with. With automation, the game doesn't feel human anymore. Also, then the catcher position becomes much easier than I think it should be.
I strongly believe that Angel Hernandez is purposely sabotaging games.
But in this case, there were bad calls against both teams. So is he betting the Under on the length of the game?? 😂
For money lmao. I would too hahah
Yeah, I think he is trying to hurt MLB with it after his lawsuit, but I think MLB secretly loves it for the attention it draws. People love to hate something and Angel provides that.
If he gets away with sucking so bad, might as well make a little cash on the side and get away with that too.
He's a dirty ump, regardless.
Watching this live last night, the segura pitch was even worse than this. But I think he was in shock that it was 6 inches off the plate
Who else is here after Angel was finally forced to retire?
