That called 3rd strike Schwarbs got ejected on was a strike and within the margin of error for the ABS (automatic balls strikes) system. A roboump would have called that a strike as well... I mean the umpires were pretty lenient with Schwarber letting him remain in the dugout AFTER he was ejected. I'm pretty sure the only missed ball/strike call that game by Angel was on McCutch. It's easy for anybody at home with a TrackMan box on their screen to see those pitches are outside of a box, but the tech has a margin of error and most of those "missed calls" were within that margin.

Yes, some of these umps are on power trips. They should be reviewed on every ejection (someone outside the union) and fined if they didn't have cause. Some of these calls can have huge financial consequences, such as terrible strike zone in a playoff game. I think the strike zone should just be automated and announced out loud without the umpire. Can only be changed if some fluke happens (bouncing or whatnot). Let the game evolve.

[@bigpoppa1234]

That Meyers not being called out for RLI wasn't "brutal awful umpiring", it was correct as per the rule. A runner is allowed to be where he was in the last step and if you interfere in that last step it's not an out call. There's no automatic out for not being in the running lane, if your throw is so late that the batter has made it to the last step then there's no RLI available. The manager crying with the picture was right that the rule sucks and should change but at the end he was wrong by complaining about "making the right call". They made the right call. The last one was out as well, when the catcher takes the ball (ie tag attempt begins) the runner's path to the base is established straight to it, but he ends up way behind the batter's box, that's close enough to more than three feet away that calling that out is an acceptable judgement call. And the commentators are morons who don't know the rules to the game they're being played to know about.

[@williammaddock9179]

[@matrixphijr]

Not to defend Angel Hernandez, but that's exactly why I hate the broadcast strike zone. It's a 2D rendering of a 3D concept, and it makes some pitches that are balls look like strikes and vice versa. A lot of those pitches were close enough that they probably were strikes, since the rule is that if ANY piece of the ball touches ANY part of the zone -- from the front of the plate all the way to the back -- it's a strike. Plastering a circle on a spot next to a rectangle on a flat plane doesn't consider the entirety of the ~21 inch depth of the plate and whether the ball crossed the zone at some other point, because I'll guarantee you at least some of those did. Take the first Schwarber K in that game -- the outline of the ball is absolutely touching the edge of the zone, which would make that a strike. Even if the second strikeout was the wrong call, Schwarber went into that with the notion that he was on the side of justice and had been screwed over twice, which just wasn't the case. And that's in addition to the fact that the box displayed is just flat out wrong most times. It's either miscalibrated because of the camera angle (same issue the NFL has with the yellow first down line, and they won't hesitate to tell you it's an approximation, not the absolute truth), incomplete (by rule, the top of the zone is the midpoint of the batter's torso/shirt, or roughly where the letters are on most uniforms, yet most broadcast strike zones clearly don't rise above the batters' waists, or change from batter to batter, which the real strike zone absolutely does), or just simply can't account for depth (some display where the ball is caught, some spot it on the plane at the front of the plate, but none of them can take into account the entirety of the 3D strike zone).

Angel Hernandez looking even more sus than normal with those FTX patches.

The umpiring in the past years are completely atrocious and sometimes deciding major postseason series winners.

[@tystin_gaming]

@0:16 actually the call being overturned is correct. The catcher was in the baseline and standing/blocking home plate as he was catching the ball. According to the rules, that is illegal. He can only do that once in possession of the ball. Search "Collisions at Home Plate" on the MLB glossary website The catcher is not permitted to block the runner's path to the plate unless he is in possession of the ball, though blocking the path of the runner in a legitimate attempt to receive a throw is not considered a violation. His attempt was not to receive the throw as he was already standing there as the throw was occurring, he didn't move into it, nor did he have to make a move into the baseline to make the catch.

If you haven't seen the Jomboy breakdown of the Schwarber vs. Angel Hernandez incident, it's a must-see. Probably my favorite player ejection of all time.

Joe Girardi : "It's just so bad, Angel. You have to do better, you have to." Angel Hernandez : "That's racist."

[@koningklootzak7788]

Players in MLB are world class for sure, but Japanese umpires in NPB are so much more accurate and consistent than umps in MLB.

[@BHV0810]

I've been waiting on this one!!!!!

[@LlamaFlies]

Love how half of these are on the Nationals in 2019. The Umps tried to screw them over so many times and they still won the World Series, also the manager Martinez had a literal heart attack because of all those bad calls and they still won 😭

[@aerogelic.]

This is more entertaining than watching the full games on tv

[@professionalamatuer8064]

For me the most infuriating part is not that mistakes are made, mistakes happen, but the overwhelming lack of accountability on the umps, who have skin thinner than egg shells and egos the size of Texas. I’m not suggesting tar and feathers but fines, suspensions and demotions are in order. All public, too.

[@justinskala769]

When you see a few missed calls and immediately know the ump; thats a problem.

[@ApexATL]

The sheer frequency of Angel appearing in videos like these is insane

[@bencutten2909]

Should be called "the angel hernandez highlight reel"
