In response to the news that infamous MLB umpire Angel Hernandez is retiring, baseball fans took a look back at some of the worst calls of his 33-year career.
The response from the MLB community was celebratory for all the wrong reasons. Many were happy that the umpire regarded by many as the worst in the league, and perhaps the worst official in all of American sports was finally gone.
There was the time Philadelphia Phillies designated hitter Kyle Schwarber completely erupted when Hernandez called strike three. Schwarber was immediately ejected.
In a different game, Hernandez threw out Phillies first baseman Bryce Harper for arguing a strike called on a checked swing.
