The home plate umpire is a literal diversity hire that was hired through a ‘minority opportunity program’, and the balls and strikes are so bad that the broadcast on Fox turned off the strike zone rectangle until a few innings after.
I’m about to go to bed, but I’ll make a main post explaining why the umpires for this WS suck, but I swear MLB is mainly doing this to force the issue with the Umpire union
Just an additional titbit Angel Hernandez sued MLB for racial bias for not promoting him. In court MLB presented statistical analyses to counter his claims of racial bias costing him his promotion.
They fucking went dataisbeautiful on Angel to prove he's shit. Angel lost the suit and lost on appeal.
I recall people softening on him when he announced he is hanging up his white cane and shades. Same goes for Joe West until he started editing his own wiki like a crazy person.
Black female football referees don’t understand what a catch is and it’s hilarious because they force video reviews on plays that are painstakingly obvious
And the male refs around them have to pay attention to twice the amount of things because they're unreliable, making the men worse by association. It's like having a woman on a firefighting team, it means more gear you have to haul around.
I was wondering if someone would make a post about this. The latina wearing a MAGA hat directly behind home plate disappeared after a few innings too.
SHUT IT DOWN!
Is she hot? Asking for a friend.
Eh, not really. 6/10. Also I have been informed she was actually asian.
She was so 6/10 as an Asian, people thought she was Latina.
Wasn’t able to watch. What happened?

Robot umpires can’t come soon enough
Anything streamlined enough to get terminally infected by DEI will be replaced with bots and AI and it can't come soon enough.
The worst ump in baseball, Angel Hernandez, once SUED Major League Baseball, claiming racism, because he wasn't getting to ump playoff games.
And now this.
Hernandez recently retired and the fans rejoiced...but in the end, he won.

He was so bad that I don't even watch baseball and I recognize that name.

fuggin oof
The officiating in every sport has been worse across the board lately.

Gambling.
Deliberately, so they can control payouts from DraftKings, FanDuel, PrizePicks, etc.
Gambling, corruption, endorsed by the leagues themselves.
Guess you'll have to distract yourself with a better circus.
Replace it with cameras and AI like they're doing with tennis line judges.
