Angel Hernandez, quite possibly the most screamed-at umpire in the history of MLB, has decided to retire, effective immediately.
“I have decided that I want to spend more time with my family. Needless to say, there have been many positive changes in the game of baseball since I first entered the profession. This includes the expansion and promotion of minorities. I am proud that I was able to be an active participant in that goal while being a Major League umpire.”
“Hernández has failed to establish a statistically significant disparity between the promotion rates of white and minority umpires,” the appeals court held. “MLB has provided persuasive expert evidence demonstrating that, during the years at issue, the difference in crew chief promotion rates between white and minority umpires was not statistically significant. Hernández offers no explanation as to why MLB’s statistical evidence is unreliable.
