Get this guy out of the league
Protected class
Here’s the big problem make everything in the rules book fucking reviewable it’s 2024!!!
I don’t know why he’s still an ump
The MLB successfully argued in court that they weren't discriminating against Angel. That he just sucks at his job. The court agreed😂
What's your second option?
Angel Hernandez confirmed bad at his job
Been confirmed lol
Yeah, this is at least a 20-something year old meme.
yep, proven in court and everything
They really need to make anything fucking reviewable that’s the big problem no more saying it’s not reviewable
@@ryonotrio6904 if the union wants to protect him fine, but stop having him behind the plate. Ray Charles could call strikes and balls better.
Every time I think I'm bad at my job I remember that Angel has been in the league for almost as long as I've been alive
Get a union job, kid.
No he's way worse than any dingus egg could ever be
Anything Angel Hernandez calls SHOULD be reviewable. ESPECIALLY this guy.
Angel Hernandez must have pictures of his boss doing something very illegal.
It’s the union that protects him. The mlb would have fired him years ago otherwise. The guy sued them.
His boss's ass is in the jackpot now
It's definitely the union. I support unions 99.9% of the time but damn are they protecting the wrong guy here.
@@nukeninmgt1504many times they protect the people in the wrong
@@nukeninmgt1504 are police unions right 99.9% of the time?
The fact that Angel is closing his eyes and guessing at the calls explains SO MUCH about his whole career
That guy could close his eyes 100% of the time and still be a better ump than he is now
Do you get how blinking and slow motion work?
Yeah like if a ball is coming high straight at your eyes at 95 mph you're not going to blink right lol.
Honestly closing his eyes would probably result in him doing a better job
@@ElectricStardust Stevie Wonder, Ronnie Milsap, Jose Feliciano and Ray Charles (RIP) could call a better game, at home on the radio!
Every call by Angel Hernandez should be a reviewable play no matter how many challenges they have left.
Is Angel the reason instant replay was instituted?
Angel Hernandez, the endless source of Jomboy breakdown material.
He is closing his eyes at the most crucial moments. A living meme of the blind umpire costume.
Exactly! No wonder he gets so many calls wrong. He flinches like a kid.
It crazy that you people think this is him just “being bad”. The league uses him for their bidding
@@tomjones4835 So youre the one who bought all the tinfoil from my grocery store this week
I feel like the MLB could get rid of him, even with the unions. I think they want him in there to keep the games comical and generate free publicity.
Sad state of affairs.
@@tomjones4835 Even crazier that people think blinking would affect the ability to make a call. He's bad, but it's hilarious that anyone thinks it's because he blinks when the ball hits the glove.
One week in and we’re already getting Angel breakdowns. Gotta love it.
there were videos in spring training
I've been convinced for some time that Hernandez purposefully makes incorrect calls just to troll players and fans. There's absolutely no way a person can be this god awful at everything they do this often for this long
Dude might have dimentia
He's just incompetent, but the MLB is gunshy about taking any punitive measures against Hernandez because of his willingness to file discrimination lawsuits against the MLB. If they take some kind of disciplinary action against him then within 24 hours he'll sue for racial discrimination.
That or he's on the take.
Stunned that jomboy didn’t point out the absolute beauty of a man sitting behind the plate at the rocks game
death, taxes, and angel hernandez missing calls
I'll take "What is a certainty" for $500, Alex.
I'll take "what's guaranteed in life" for $1000 Alex.
That's about the size of it.
I’ll take Angel Hernandez blown calls for 2000 Alex
He said it was a foul ball. Then instantly changed his mind when he realized it might’ve been reviewed. Not only is he bad, he’s also unwilling to be scrutinized. All sorts of wrong.
Replay office would've searching for a way to get Angel Hernandez ejected.
This isn't even the first time he has done that. He always looks for a way to make it non-reviewable, even when his base umpires are arguing with him
He signalled a foul tip, which was correct.
No, it wasn’t.
The shot of his eyes closing 😂😂
Every sport has its villain(s). Baseball has Angel Hernandez
You'd swear Angel was doing some insider gambling with the calls he makes. But he's probably too oblivious to even think of that
Angel would be the type to do inside gambling, and still make the wrong call, which results in him losing his bets.
@@Tommy9834 Exactly. I really don't believe he's capable of making the correct wrong call
Angel is doing exactly what the MLB wants him to do.
@@CubeInspector I don't know about that. They won't let him ump playoff games (or maybe it's just world series games?). That's what he sued about a couple of years ago.
@CubeInspector you mean the same league who tried to fire him but the union saved his job?
4:15 strong outfit in the stands. Purple shades, undertaker hat, Andy Reid stache, and the party in the back.
He's glorious.
I noticed that, too. Waiting for his turn at open mic night in the jazz bar.
Bro lookin like he's about to hit Angel with the tombstone piledriver on home plate. Pin em for the 3 count and take his place as ump.
Black top hat, purple shirt, purple tie. Yeah he's got that 90s Taker vibe.
Fan of the week candidate, despite his apparent stoicism.
In the NFL a team of analysts review every single game and every single call by a referee. And I can't remember the number, but if a ref is correct less than like 96% of the time ... they're sidelined. MLB should hold their umpires to such standards.
It never fails. There are incompetent people in the workplace everywhere you go, even here in MLB. Why Angel Hernandez has been kept on as a major league umpire is beyond me.
Because if they try to discipline him, he claims "You're attacking me because of the color of my skeeeen!!!"
If you look closely in the Detroit/Hernandez Game it's in the 11th inning. Everyone knows Angel gets cranky after inning 7 and sleepy after the 10th it explains the call perfectly.
It’ll be a sad day when we lose Angel Hernandez to retirement. He is a national treasure for jomboy breakdowns kinda like Joe West
I think we'll manage.
Any call angel makes should be reviewable. End of story.
Angel shouldn’t be making calls. Story ends.
He’s behind the plate tonight in Houston. The TV announcers said this after three straight strike calls with the bases loaded:
“Whoa”
“Oh my goodness”
“You have got to be kidding! What in the world?!
Was that the "First pitch right down the middle for a ball" and "What part of that pitch was not a strike?" game?
We already have an Angel clip and the season just started
He had about five Breakdown worthy events last weekend
He’s awful!
shocked it even took this long tbh
That’s what I said 😆
I saw the headline and laughed thinking he did something during the "step-off pitch to Torres AB" a couple days ago that was also stupid.
Didn't expect a completely different incident.
He definitely changed his mind when the other ump asked about the swing!
He went "swung? ...swung. yeah, let's go with that"
I genuinely think he didn't know that the ball hitting the bat on a check swing doesn't count as a swing of the bat. Which is insane for an mlb umpire.
No, if the pitch hits the batter while the batter is swinging, then it's a "dead ball strike." He put his hands up to signal the dead ball, and that was the call from the start. Hernandez did everything right except for calling that the batter swung.
@@JobiWan144 no he made the ball was tipped into the glove signal. "The mechanic for a foul tip is to brush the back of your left hand with your right hand, then give the strike signal" which is exactly what angel did. he changed his mind when the ump asked him about it.
@@JobiWan144AussieAdam is right. He immediately signals for foul tip which Jomboy says as well. He absolutely changed his mind once the 2nd base ump mentioned swing. Now maybe he meant swing but signaled foul tip? But we can’t read minds and he hasn’t said otherwise
He called foul tip right away. But if the initial call was foul tip, then he always thought the batter swung from the beginning. It was definitely not actually a swing, but Hernandez mostly stayed consistent from a reasoning perspective.
This channel has done so much for developing my interest in baseball but calls like this just crush that interest into dust. Any frustration I have now would be x10 if I was fully invested and frankly, I’m good. Saving myself the headache.
And Angel struck again last night in the Rangers-Astros game.
Just when you think he literally can’t get any worse, he totally redeems himself with calls like this.
I'm pretty sure CB Buckner is statistically worse. His strike-zone is a banana.
That was Dumb (and Dumber)
CB Buckner was bad enough a squirrel on the field in Cleveland chewed him out.
The one thing Angel is good for, is content.
Probably the reason he still has a job tbh. Lord knows it's not because of his skills as an ump.
As someone who doesn't watch baseball, Hernandez is like one of 3 people I can name from the current era off my head.
When Jomboy Media does a commentary on Angel Hernandez, I click.
I think that's 3 calls already this season where the batter gets hit in the hand and might have swung but the umps called it wrong all 3 times. There should definitely be an update to the review rules to allow for this to be checked.
He doesn’t even know what he called 😭😭
I don't know that much about the baseball, but wouldn't the first sign that he does after the pitch indicate that it deflected of the bat? And then later he is calling it a swing and that it his hands... So weird
That's the worst part. He's not even standing behind a bad call. He's too stupid to know what he called initially
If you duck under a ball and it hits the bat it’s a strike. The hands are apart of the bat in the rule book. So even if he didn’t attempt to swing it’s a strike since it hit the bat(his hands)
I don’t think I’ve ever agreed with him but he made a good call.
@@Will34117 This is completely incorrect. The batter's hands explicitly DO NOT count as part of the bat. If a pitch hits the batter's hands, it's a HBP (unless they say he swung); if the pitch hits the bat first, it's a foul ball. That's the whole reason there was an issue with this call.
@@Will34117 This is so wrong that umpires have a joke about it. "Next time you get a bat, can I have the hands that come with it?"
Calling Angel Hernandez an umpire is like calling Casey Anthony a good mother.
Holy shit this is gold 🤣
Or joe biden a good president
@@youngbarkly6759or Donald Trump a good businessman
Ted Bundy a good boyfriend
Or calling Custer a great General
@ 3:00 mark Hernandez gives the “ foul tip “ gesture with his hands or maybe a “ hit by pitch gesture , not a strike three motion.
Angel was just saying that the replay wouldn’t have made a difference (he probably didn’t claim to know it hit his hand)
Non-reviewable Plays feel like they exist just to prevent Angel Hernandez from being embarrassed and/or embarrassing the MLB.
Rob Manfred is too cowardly to say jack squat about Angel doing this again and again. This has to stop. Literally every game with Hernandez there's a call like this...😡
Just accept he is doing exactly what they want.
It's the union. Everything is union.
@@seantimmons5900 Bingo. Shit workers, protected by unions.
He can't say things publicly for legal reasons. The league has said plenty about Hernandez with assignments though.
MLB has done what they can. If they hadn't, Angel wouldn't have felt the need to sue them.
Jomboy. You make baseball watchable. ❤ godspeed
LETS DUCKING GOOOOOOO😂😂😂
5:40. This one is a real head-scratcher, because there was literally no way for the umps to get the call correct. The correct call here is a dead-ball strike. Once the ball hits the player, it's a dead ball. The guy swung, so it's a dead ball strike. It doesn't matter if the ball was put into play. The ball is dead. But, it seems that there were only two paths: he either swung and the play is not reviewable (he's out) or he didn't swing and the play is reviewable (he's awarded 1B on HBP). Neither path gets you to the correct call. What a mess.
Why are there still 60 year old men who are in their retirement age expected to view a ball going 100 mph?.
Won't you want a union that helps you pay your bills when you're old and slow?
@@jimgray3346I guess man but it’s still kinda strange
@@jimgray3346yeah sports are different though. Just like players that lose their touch, umps shouldn't have garunteed jobs either.
Because the 60 year old men helped create a system that will protect them until the end of time.
Because somehow systems created to protect coal miners are being used for high paying, high skilled, low risk jobs.
There's a fundamental flaw in a system that says "You can only review it IF..." when the IF thing is where the disagreement is going to happen. That's like saying "You can only review out calls at the base if it's not even close... and we'll be the judges of whether it's close..."
What's supposed to happen in a situation where the batter starts to swing, but doesn't check his swing until after it hits him? I could see that being the verdict in this play.
strike
Give the guy credit! On a bad day, Angel would call this 'traveling'.
On a normal day, he would’ve pulled a yellow card out of his pocket
@@manifestgtr "Traveling, that's a yellow card and two minutes in the box. Replay second down."
@@radix4801
LOL
He either couldn't remember if he called it a swing or not, or he knew he called foul but didn't want to be proven wrong again
I don't even like baseball but your analysis and lip reading skills are impressive enough to be interesting
good job
I used to think ripping on him was a joke, but countless times I have seen him blatantly have a bad call and refer to no other umpires
The camera is facing the pitcher and the batter catcher and umpire for 90% of the game the fact that those calls aren’t reviewable is crazy
pretty darn quick to review too. Watch a few seconds twice in slo mo and you know the answer
Yep. Then MLB wonders why they have these constant ejections and missed calls.
Best base ball commentary ever!
Did Angel Hernandez intentionally change it from a foul tip to a swing knowing that they can't review it? I could imagine trying to pull that if I was an umpire with ego problems.
He had to know that he clearly and emphatically made the foul tip signal, which is nothing like the "it was a swing" signal.
It can be called both a foul tip and a swing at the same time, happens all the time. So in his version of events, it was a foul tip that occurred during a swing, thus non-reviewable. If it was a foul tip during a non-swing, it would be reviewable. The weird part is him talking after the fact as if it hit the batter (which is the real thing that contradicts his foul tip call), but he could have just been talking hypothetically, I suppose.
@@konga382 Yeah...of course that's true. I think I wasn't considering that because I was just looking at the fact that it was so obviously NOT a swing that the only thing he could have possibly called was the foul tip. But, yeah - maybe he did signal the foul tip thinking that it was a foul tip on a swing.
A foul tip is a swing... Jeez
Which it gets counted as even if you accidentally hit the ball with your bat while just standing there on a wild pitch...ex umpire here
Angel closing his eyes and then being adamant that it was a swing is peak Angel
And he feels like he should be a Wlorld Series ump...
I had the same situation. The ump said I made a swing.
I needed 2 surgeries for repairing structured bone 🫣
Same thing happened in my 12u brothers baseball travel game
May we all be blessed with a union this strong.
Amen to that!
Man, unions are creepy.
Naive children think it's the union. There is not one single union in the world that makes it so you can't fire someone for documented patterns of poor performance.
Just accept the fact he calls things exactly how the league wants. Maybe then you'll understand pro sports is as real as the WWE
@@CubeInspectorWhy’s is not fired?
@CubeInspector That's...literally and exactly what the ump union does.
Jomboy trying so hard to tell Angel how he was going to defend him but can’t is the best journalism we will ever get. Top tier, highest caliber, please continue your amazing work good sir.
At this point can we get Jomboy in the announcers booth!! Petition here 👇
White Sox had one of these situations a few years ago and it was a crucial call that resulted in a Sox loss.... The guy in the batter’s box for the Sox swung with bases loaded down by one in the ninth… He swung even though he got hit by the pitch, and he was called out by swinging..
Angel Hernandez must be wearing Solar Eclipse Glasses 24x7
Except during a solar eclipse
4:24. What a chill looking dude
At 3:01 you see him clearly motion for a foul tip, so I think that was the initial call, but then changed it to swing call so the play couldn't be reviewed.
Angel is the legit villain of baseball
why does mlb have one of the most challenging types of calls nonrenvwable. The first base umpire is about 90 feet away, and when it's a close call it can be really difficult to call. I don't blame the umpires for missed calls of this type sometimes, but rather the replay system and the inability to overturn a check swing call.
Exactly. Not like reviewing a foul call in basketball or pass interference in football. These plays are very clear and objective idk why mlb insists on fucking people over😂😂you should be able to review every single play except strike or not. Other than that there’s always clear evidence one way or another smh
Because there's no exact definition for when a check swing becomes an actual swing, other than, "if the batter makes an attempt to swing." It's not if their wrists break, or if they cross the plate, it's very literally a judgement call that's open to interpretation.
Angel doing Angel things.
I love Angel Hernandez, these are golden.
Shearly a check swing or not call shouldn't be reviewed but a lead ump in the field should always have the ability to Quantum Leap a call! Put right what once went wrong!
Check out Laureano's jersey at 6:00 , the MLB logo is so crazy off center. It's not even close.
Not really..
The Cleveland batter swung, but the ball hit him before the bat went around. He was in the motion of swinging, but the bat had not gone forward.
4:25 top right. That guys a legend
I LOVE that the dude ignored Angel and just walked to first.
Except he's not supposed to get first base. The rule is about getting hit while in the act of swinging. It doesn't have anything to do with going around or not. JB just cashed in on the Angel Hernandez name but this is a non-story.
@@user-of9qq6op5uwell the fact it obviously wasn’t a swing is what makes it a story. Angel being the one calling it a swing is just typical flair and predictable.
@@user-of9qq6op5u is that you, Angela?
yeah unfortunately thats probably what flared up is ego
I was furious watching the Tork call live. I know not to expect anything less from Angel Hernandez but it still is just so frustrating every single time. He has to have dirt on multiple people or something because there’s zero reason for him to keep his job.
So what was the call there bro. Did Torkelson get hit? Say yes and you've jumped the tracks.
He was hit, if you think that's "jumped the tracks" you're welcome to be wrong
@@teejay3272I’m confused what your point is. Whether or not it hit torks hand (which I personally believe it did) pales in comparison to how obvious it is that (A.) it did not hit the bat whatsoever and (B.) that Tork did not swing in the fuckin SLIGHTEST
My dad used to be the one saying the hands are part or the bat which makes since since u have to swing to normally get hit like that I. The hands
Was at the M's game. Thanks for explaining why that call was overturned.
Me too, that was some of the loudest booing I’d heard at a game lol. Literally everyone was yelling “HE SWUNG”
I think also for the second one. The ball is "dead" when it hits a player so the "swing" stops as soon as it hits his hand.
Angel Hernandez never disappoints when it comes to disappointment.
Hope you review his strike zone in the rangers Astros game
yo the fan at 4:23 is dripped out xD
never in my life do i recall remembering any ref, official, or umpires name for sports that i actually pay attention to let alone baseball which is rare that i catch a game. To know the name by heart of a particular umpire in a world where i dont know any of them is a problem. I cant believe he still has this job.
As a small counterpoint, in rugby (union) everyone knows the names of the best refs. This is partly because they are micced up for transparency, so people know that they do a great job and have good personalities for the jobs.
i know the names of a bunch of pro wrestling refs, but they are just characters in a show and their actions and involvements are all scripted.
i also know a bunch of the late 90's through 2010's fight refs, like in UFC or big boxing events.
for boxing/ fight refs, i actually know most of them for /good/ calls they made that might have seemed bad right in the moment.
To defend Angel, i know; I'm thinking when a batter is the act of swinging; stepping into, raising the hands etc. Like stepping into a pitch sitiutation. I think they fall in the same rule.
Nobody gonna talk about the guy at 4:24😂love the look
04:28 The guy in the background with the hat looks like he could be a South Park character. It's Wild Bill Hickok in Oakleys.
I kind of think MLB's best option is to make a Cuban the commissioner just for a day to fire Hernandez so he can't sue for racism.
That’s absolutely brilliant!
I honestly think Mark Cuban would be a better Commisioner than Rob Manfred.
Just a question: for the Laureano case, isn't the ball dead before he does cross the "point" where it becomes a swing?
I'm not a big baseball fan, but I went to a Rockies game this week, and the only name I recognized was Angel Hernandez, lucky he wasn't behind home.
I was watching highlights of bad Hernandez calls last night and then boom.. another one today brought to us by the great JomBoy. Gotta love it! Thank you sir
I was waiting for you to analyze this. I dread the day my Brewers have Angel umping.
Love your stuff, suggestion: Could you put your face and logo at the top left or top right? You were super unseeable there, which just makes me wanna see your face reactions xD
4:15 ... no comment on the guy in the background with cowboy hat and Skeeter glasses????
You think the other umps hate dealing with Angel too? Like the other ump has to argue with the coach because Angel thought it was a swing, even though no one else in the universe agrees. Like they're probably just standing there talking about Angel behind his back pretending to be talking about the call.
Why does he still have a job?
Union/ protected class
Tenure…….or the umpire version lol
Because the league loves umpires that will dictate outcomes for them.
@@CubeInspectorno he’s protected by the union, he sued the MLB and the courts even ruled he sucked but he can’t get fired because of the union.
@@andrewpatterson8576 Then the union deserves to be sacked.
4:15 old Boston Connor behind home plate 😂
Hernandez makes almost 500k a year and can never be fired . And us fans actually PAY his salary 🤦🏼♀️
you nailed it at the end. "All plays should be reviewable"
Especially when Angel Hernandez is making the calls.
And the game would slow to a crawl
it's absolutely mind blowing that certain plays are reviewable and others are not. just, WHY?
I’ve been pissed for years that the MLB rule book never defines a swing. It uses the word “swing” dozens of times but nowhere does it say what a swing is. So the definition of a swing is whatever the umpire says it is. Then for them to have plays reviewable based on whether or not a swing was called is insanity. Because a swing could be anything an umpire says it is.
This video needs to be shown in a big brass meeting at MLB. Fix reviews, fix the umps and FIRE ANGEL HERNANDEZ!
Angel Hernandez and baseball don’t mix. He should’ve been a politician.
Angel Hernandez is truly the umpire of all time
Jomboy the best
If it is a swing the bat makes contact with the catchers mitt, so it is catcher interference and the batter should be on first...
“If you swing and it hits you, it’s a strike” yeah thanks for the refresher Angel. I’m surprised you knew that
EVERY PLAY SHOULD BE REVIEWABLE!!!!!
WTF YOU JUST SAY???
