Longtime MLB umpire Angel Hernandez retires immediately after failing in racial discrimination lawsuit against the league.
Hernandez expressed desire to spend more time with family and reflected on positive aspects of his career and changes in baseball regarding minorities.
2nd Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals denied reinstatement of Hernandez's case, citing lack of statistical disparity in promotion rates between white and minority umpires provided by MLB.
