It’s the start of another Major League season and somehow, Ángel Hernández still works as an umpire.

He reminded everyone how bad he was almost immediately in Sunday’s Yankees-Blue Jays game when he called Gleyber Torres out on a surprisingly terrible three-strike play in the first inning.

Toronto pitcher Bowden Francis was on the mound when he appeared to back away from the rubber. He looked at his foot and realized his mistake, but he proceeded to throw anyway since he was not called for a balk.

Torres, thinking it was a dead throw, took a step back and did not attempt to hit the ball. The pitch landed three to five inches above the zone, which Hernandez surprisingly called a strike three.

Torres pleaded his case, Yankees manager Aaron Boone came out and began arguing with Hernandez, saying there was no way the strike should have counted after the pitcher stepped on the rubber, and Hernandez wouldn’t budge, telling Torres to sit down.

Ángel Hernández calls it a strike anyway, even though it’s a dead pitch that missed the zone by about three inches too high. Gleyber Torres (25) is seen protesting the exit.

Boos erupted from the Bronx, who also let out a chorus of ‘F**k you Angel’ directed at the home plate umpire.

Just to make sure both sides were screwed in this situation, Hernandez called a sinker by Blue Jays pitcher Timothy Mayza a ball, even though it was perfectly in the middle of the plate and well in the zone.

All parties couldn’t believe how horrible Hernandez had been, and people were once again calling for his job on social media.

‘This should be Ángel Hernández’s last game. “Enough is enough,” New York Post baseball writer Jon Heyman wrote on Twitter.

‘There’s no way this is allowed, right? You can’t get off and then just get to work right away and make a pitch. Also, what a terrible strike call that Ángel Hernández made,’ another user wrote.

Another user said: ‘Ángel Hernández is the worst referee/official/referee in professional sports. Tell me I’m wrong.’

“This has to be the most Angel Hernandez clip I’ve ever seen in my life,” another post reads. ‘The pitcher gets off, instantly goes back to the mound to throw a pitch, throws a ball and somehow they call Torres… How is this guy still employed?’

Another person posted, “absolutely hilarious how Ángel Hernández makes fun of literally every game he works on.” You think “it’s not possible for him to sit on his balls today” and then he immediately sits on his balls. remarkable.’

“Ángel Hernández is a disgrace to baseball and anyone who truly prides themselves on being good at their job. This man should never again be allowed near a baseball field or diamond of any kind,” said another user.

The Yankees beat the Blue Jays 8-3.
