MLB Umpire Angel Hernandez Faces Intense Criticism for Series of Erroneous Calls

Angel Hernandez's performance during a recent MLB game sparks outrage and calls for his removal, following a series of incorrect strike calls.

Angel Hernandez, a controversial MLB umpire, made several incorrect calls during a game between the Texas Rangers and Houston Astros, notably calling three balls as strikes.
The incorrect calls were highlighted by Rangers' broadcasters and confirmed by Umpire Auditor, which noted that one pitch missed the strike zone by 6.78 inches, a record miss.
Critics argue that Hernandez's continued employment raises questions about the integrity of MLB officiating, with some suggesting he is inadvertently promoting the case for robot umpires.
Despite the errors, the Rangers secured a 12-8 victory over the Astros, though Hernandez's calls have been a recurring issue, affecting multiple games this season.
MLB has not yet taken disciplinary action against Hernandez, leading to frustration among fans and other umpires.
