This happens waaaaay too often in baseball. What’s annoying isn’t just the missed pitches you’re seeing here, it’s the fact that usually these frustrations are the culmination of many missed strikes over the course of a game. As a hitter, you can adjust to an umpire who has a wide strike zone if they’re at least consistent with it. It’s when they’re inconsistent that it becomes impossible for a hitter to anticipate what will be a ball or strike.

That very first clip was from a game where the infamous Angel Hernandez was plate umpire. He is notorious as the worst umpire in baseball, and this was his worst game. He'd been blowing ball-and-strike calls all game, all game, all game, and Kyle Schwarber finally let him have it. Check the score: Philadelphia losing 1-0, bottom of the ninth. The Phillies had numerous scoring opportunities ruined because batters didn't swing at pitches far outside the strike zone and Hernandez called them strikes. This put them behind in the count, and forced them to swing at balls because they had no idea what Hernandez would call a strike. Or they struck out on on bad calls. Hernandez even sued the MLB because he's never gotten a spot in the playoffs despite decades in the majors, and he accused the league office and umpires' union of racial discrimination because he's Hispanic. Incompetent and self-pitying.

Daz and Aidan, that first clip where Kyle Schwarber the Phillies batter got thrown out was due to and entire game of poor calls that where blatant and some not even questionable that were flat missed. Not to mention the home plate ump for this game Angel Hernandez is generally regarded as one of of not the worst ump in baseball but is protected by of the umpires union. Jomboy media has video breaking this down between him and Kyle Schwarber because of how egregiously bad it was on Hernandez’s part. But he was in the spot light for another missed call in a game with the Tampa rays but due to instant replay the call was reversed and show to be a complete blunder on his part saved by the instant review. Again later on in the when it shows another Phillies player talking tk the ump about that pitch that was called a strike that was way off and the replay of where it was in regards to the strike zone and showed it was out of the zone was the same game as the very first clip is this that game got scrutinized heavily afterwards and that umps reports got put out and he had terrible marks for accuracy for that game.

@gregcable3250 Жыл бұрын
A strike is when the ball passes through the "strike zone" which in MLB is formally, "The official strike zone is the AREA over home plate from the midpoint between a batter's shoulders and the top of the uniform pants -- when the batter is in his stance and prepared to swing at a pitched ball -- and a point just below the kneecap." So that frame you see is not the strike zone but only frames the front of the strike zone, which is an AREA over the plate taking roughly the shape of a cube (not a square). As such some of these non-strikes may have actually been strikes--some obviously were not.
@michaelash8552 Жыл бұрын
Most umpires miss a few calls every game but there are definitely some that miss way too many calls to frequently. Now they rate the efficiency of the ball and strikes calls but it's mostly just for record keeping. But they do use rating to decide which umpires work the post-season games. The umpires have such a strong union that no gets fired for poor performance. There are a few long time umpires that everyone knows are terrible all-around you just have to power through them. Since the introduction of Instant Replay reviews of plays in the field many of their bad calls are corrected. They do have a system in the minor leagues for challenging bad calls that looks to work pretty well but it may be awhile before they implement it in the Major Leagues.

I'm sure there are many videos about him for y'all to react to, but Angel Hernandez is known as being one of the worst umpires in terms of calling a ball/strike with any consistency. Players and fans have universally hated him for the ~20 years he's been an ump. The only reason the MLB can't fire him is because the umpires' union is strong enough with a potential backlash that its easier for them to keep him on. For me, the worst thing about his calls is that none of them are consistent so players have no clue what to expect from him. If an ump is having a wider strike zone than what the rule technically is, most players are fine with that so long as they keep it consistent and call it the same way for both teams. Hernandez like 10 years ago tried suing the MLB for discrimination by not letting him umpire the World Series; the leagues defense was pretty easy since all they had to say was you are a bad umpire and that's why you didn't get the job.
@Nexadvenio9 ай бұрын
I’m sure a lot of this is already but: The way the catchers move their hands when they catch the ball is called framing, it can create an illusion for the ump based on the angle they see the catch. The umps don’t get fired because they have an unreasonably strong union contract. There’s a man named Angel Hernandez that is notorious for blowing calls. It does not need to be directly in or out of the box, the strike zone is technically a floating cube, as long as the ball is the appropriate height, any piece of the ball can go over any piece of the plate. Some umpires also have their own strike zone. For example, the tallest mlb umpire has a tendency to call a higher strike zone, but does that consistently, so teams play around it. The reason Schwarber was so mad in that first clip was because the ump (Angel Hernandez) had been inconsistent, calling balls and strikes on pitches in essentially the same location.

Part of what makes the sport so interesting is the human element aspect, especially with the umpires. Some umpires may have longer vertical strikezones, and some may have wider horizontal strike zones. The batters have these statistics about how umpires call their strikes, but of course it's still super annoying as a batter when you know for a fact a pitch wasn't a strike and it gets called as such. You combine that with how the Catchers frame pitches, and some of the angles a Pitcher can throw the ball which give it the illusion that it was thrown in the strike zone, and you can see why hitting a baseball rates as one of the toughest things you can do in sports. This is why perfect umpire games are a thing in Baseball, where the umpire doesn't miss a single call all night. It's a tough job honestly.

But I do think that when they make insanely bad calls that they need to be held accountable for it.

MLB's response to this lawsuit was to bring in statistics showing just how bad Angel was at umping games and explained that was the reason he wasn't getting assigned to important games.

It shouldn't be that way, but it is. And it's not like MLB umpires are any different than umpires for soccer. Maybe somebody gets a red card and that changes the whole flow of the game.

While I hate the egregious calls (like many in the this compilation) I will say two things that I do appreciate about the human element of calling balls and strikes. I appreciate that the strike zone is the strike zone, but each umpire has “their” strike zone. One may give you a little more off the plate than others. One might squeeze the corners, but he’s known to call them lower. It’s a game within the game that the batter and pitcher have to adapt to. And then at the professional level, that’s something they can even scout. Of course awful calls are bad. But the slight variations between ump to ump is kind of fun and interesting. And 2nd, the framing of pitches. It’s an art and skill for catches and I feel that everyone appreciates a good frame job when they see one.
