Este año ha sido bastante complicado para los umpires en la MLB. Demasiados de ellos han hecho demasiadas cantadas malas en los primeros meses de la temporada y ya nos urge que lleguen los umpires robot.

El domingo, en el juego entre Braves y Nationals, vimos otra cantada realmente mala y el umpire que estaba haciendo la cantada estaba demasiado emocionado con todo esto.

Matt Olson, primera base de los Braves, pensó que había obtenido una base por bola en un picheo 3-2 con dos outs en la parte alta de la quinta entrada. Sin embargo, el umpire de home, Jose Navas, tenía otros planes y de forma muy emocionada cantó el lanzamiento como strike y puso fin a la entrada de Atlanta.

Vean lo mala que fue esa cantada:

 

¡Fue brutal! El tipo estaba demasiado contento mientras hacía eso.

Aquí les dejamos las reacciones de Twitter:

Traducción: Lejísimos del plato.
Por Dios.

 

Traducción: ¿QUÉ FUE ESO, HERMANO?

 

Traducción: Absolutamente terrible. @MLBUA mantengan a sus umpires a raya. Esto es una atrocidad.

 

Traducción: ¿Saben lo mal umpire que tienen que ser para hacer enojar a Matt Olson?

MLB Umpire Angel Hernandez blew so many calls in the Astros-Angels game

This is so bad.

Look, being an umpire is hard. Baseballs move fast, the strike zone changes from player to player, pitch variations are hard to discern sometimes.

So it’s easy to miss a call here and there. Especially in Major League Baseball, where the best of the best players are going at it every night at the highest level.

But at a certain point, there’s an expectation for an umpire to get things right. They’re also supposed to be the best in the world at what they do in calling these games.

MLB Umpire Angel Hernandez seems to be missing that mark right now — and by a lot.

Hernandez got called out after Tuesday night’s Astros vs. Angels game because he blew so many calls. A video posted to Twitter by Apollo Media showed just how bad he was.

That’s just the eye test, though. But there’s also actual data to back it up and it turns out he was really that bad.

According to Umpire Auditor, Hernandez missed 24 calls in total with a correct call percentage on just 83.2% of them.

They graded his overall accuracy at 86%. The average is 94%.

That’s…not good. Fans were fed up.

And you can’t really blame them here. This is just an awful officiating job, hands down. It’s wild to see a game called this badly.

Those robot umps are gonna be here before we know it.

Gators News: July 7, 2020

Continuing to delve deeper into the summer doldrums the ugly head of COVID-19 continues to pervade areas of our society, including sports. 

As we continue to delve deeper into the summer doldrums, the ugly head of COVID-19 continues to pervade all areas of our society, including sports.

For the time being, the powers that be have every intent on moving forward with a college football season this fall, but many are becoming more and more skeptical. Some believe that time is running out for the season to begin as scheduled and others just do not think the season is going to happen — not for a lack of trying, however.

Professional sports have also been struggling to get their protocols perfectly implemented as well as dealing with the “human factor” with some among the game who may not be reliable in complying with safety measures or may pose potential threats themselves. For Major League Baseball, once such example appears to be umpire Joe West.

However, alluding back to the earlier topic: if you want college football (or any sports), please wear your masks and practice social distancing. If we all work together as a team, we can get through this pandemic and have our sports again.

Around the Swamp

It’s great to be a Florida Gator!
