62-Year-Old Controversial MLB Umpire Ángel Hernández Retires Effective Tuesday After Three Decades
May 28, 2024, 02:15 AM
Ángel Hernández, one of Major League Baseball's most controversial umpires, is retiring effective immediately after a career that spanned over three decades. The 62-year-old Hernández, often criticized by players, managers, and fans for his inconsistent strike zone and quick ejections, confirmed his retirement in a statement. He began his umpiring career in 1991 and has been a polarizing figure in the sport. His retirement follows a financial settlement with MLB, and he has not worked a game since May 9. Hernández also unsuccessfully sued MLB for racial discrimination. His departure, which will be officially announced on Tuesday, has elicited strong reactions from the baseball community, with many recalling his most infamous calls.
