	Spudart: Angel Hernandez, Major League Baseball's worst umpire (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The mlb.com forums seem to agree that Angel Herandez is the most awful umpire in major league baseball.
		Angel Hernandez with a 22-12/+1420 record for the vistors.
		Mike Hargrove continues to argue with home plate umpire Angel Hernandez during the start of the second inning after Hernandez kicked a bat left at home plate by Kenny Lofton on a close call strike three in the first inning.

	ESPN.com: MLB - Umps don't care if McMichael never comes back
		Hernandez said he received a call from Cubs general manager Andy MacPhail on Wednesday morning and that MacPhail apologized on behalf of the team.
		Hernandez said he had McMichael ejected because he mentioned the umpires and incited the crowd, so Hernandez said he had no choice but to have McMichael removed.
		Hernandez said he has experienced similar incidents with guests on the public-address system in the minors but that it's not something that should happen in the majors.

	St. Louis Cardinals - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the bottom of the 9th inning, umpire Don Denkinger called Royals batter Jorge Orta safe at first base — a call refuted by broadcast television's instant replay.
		The blow was reminiscent of Dave Henderson's clutch homer against the Angels in Game 5 of the 1986 ALCS.
		Houston was then shut down in the bottom of the 9th by the Cardinals' closer Jason Isringhausen to preserve the win, guaranteeing at least one more game at Busch Stadium.

		Hernandez went on to retire six of the next seven batters, and the White Sox´s rookie reliever Bobby Jenks closed out the game.
		At first Pierzynski headed back to the dugout but ran to first base upon realizing that umpire Doug Eddings had ruled that Angels catcher Josh Paul did not field the ball cleanly, meaning he would have to either tag the batter or throw to the first baseman to record the out (see dropped third strike).
		With the Sox down 4-2 and two men on base, the home plate umpire ruled that Jermaine Dye had been hit by a pitch when in actuality the ball had hit the bottom of his bat.

		Angel Hernandez has 13 years of MLB service and will be working his tenth event in nine years (97 and 98 DS, 99 ASG, 00 and 01 LCS, 02 DS and World Series, 03 and 04 LCS).

	Giants’ Schmidt shuts down Dodgers (printable version)
		Down the hall in the other clubhouse, Odalis Perez screamed obscenities at the video replay of umpire Angel Hernandez’s pivotal balk call against him.
		When it was over, the Dodgers blamed Hernandez for a poor call — but they also were quick to praise Schmidt, who threw 127 pitches both on Tuesday night and in a 2-0 win over Los Angeles last Thursday.
		Hernandez immediately waved his arms and called a balk against Perez.

	Baseball Musings: Comment on Hot Tempers (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Angel Hernandez is awful behind the plate today.
		Hernandez certainly got back at the Yankees on those two non-time-out calls (on Williams and Sheffield).
		He was correct in not granting time to either of them, granted, but umpires usually gives guys time out just about any time they want.

	BBTF's Baseball Primer Newsblog Discussion :: Washington Post: Umpire's Call Is Defended By MLB (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Many umpires like to use the "whiplash mechanic" (hands together then right hand back and left hand forward done to the side of the plate) to signify that the third pitch is a strike and results in an out.
		And as for the comment of some unidentified umpire who wishes to retain his connections with MLB while criticizing their intent, if he won't go onto the record then there is nothing of substance he can add to the issue.
		Practically speaking, the umpire has to be clear in signalling, and also in signalling when he isn't making a call, and the players have to be able to rely on the signals.

		Posted by Dayal Murukutla at May 4, 2005 10:49 AM That was Steve McMichael, who told the crowd that he'd have a word with umpire Angel Hernandez (who made a bad call two plays earlier) after the game.
		Hernandez then ejected McMichael, who stayed in the booth for the bottom of the 7th until security came up and said he must leave Wrigley Field.
		Angel Hernandez is still a jerk for that.

	Fan says Walker HR ball was foul - - MSNBC.com
		Walker, meanwhile, praised the eyesight of home plate umpire Tim McClelland, who overruled the foul call by right-field umpire Angel Hernandez.
		As Walker’s drive off Mike Mussina headed toward the foul pole, the fan reached toward the ball, and Hernandez signaled it was foul.
		He was quickly overruled by McClelland after Little ran out of the dugout to argue and the Red Sox had a 3-0 lead on the way to a 5-2 win.

		Home plate umpire Angel Hernandez - the subject of McMichael's criticism - appeared steamed by the comments and signaled for McMichael's ejection.
		The Cubs have been using guest singers during the seventh-inning stretch ever since Caray, their longtime announcer, died before the 1998 season.
		Do umpires even have jurisdiction to eject people who aren't on the field or in the dugout?

		An inning later McMichael, with an open mike as that day's "guest conductor," told fans "not to worry about it," that he and Hernandez would "have some speaks" later.
		Hernandez tossed McMichael out of the game, notable since McMichael was in the press box at the time.

	Mariner Musings: April 2003 Archives (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		An interesting note on the Angels: They were 4th in runs scored, 6th in on base percentage, 1st in batting average, 21st in home runs and 26th in walks.
		What that tells me is the Angels were very lucky in 2002 and their likelihood to maintain the same level of success is very low.
		The Angels lineup is chockfull of hitters with above average batting averages and below average on base percentages: Darin Erstad (.283/.313), Garrett Anderson (.306/.332), Adam Kennedy (.312/.345).

		If only we could have him cloned and then have either him or one of his clones act as the home-plate umpire for every Major League game, think of the entertainment value.
		As if there was any doubt, apparently he was rated the worst umpire in baseball in a player's survey a couple years ago.
		Angel Hernandez, another perennial favorite of mine, is on there too, although he's a little farther down than he probably should be, in my opinion.
