    Is there a bigger asshat in baseball than Angel Hernandez?

    Who was the guy who tossed Harper the other day?

    I don't know if he is a bigger asshat, but Fieldin Culbreath is an even worse umpire.

    There is no worse umpire than CB Bucknor. Angel Hernandez is bad as well.

    To mess up a home run replay that badly either makes him the worst umpire or the most vindictive. I'm an Indians fan and was rooting for the A's to tie it up after that sham of a replay process.

    Selig should at the minimum suspend Hernandez and at best use the Pine Tar game as precedence and restart the game tied at 4-4 in the 9th.

    There was some kind of ruling in a Dodgers game the other night about how Carl Crawford didn't control a ball for long enough so it wasn't an out. That must be like the "football-related movement" thing.

    CB Bucknor is the worst umpire, but Angel Hernandez is almost as bad, and he comes with a douchebag attitude. That's a deadly combination in an ump.

    Good point on Angel. He does like to make himself a part of the game as quickly as possible.

    Angel is the Hochuli of MLB.

    I'm kind of surprised cameras on foul poles - or at least somewhere that would give a better angle on HRs aren't standard. Hard to believe there wasn't a sound that might have given it away when it happened.
