In the instant case this might very well be the worst call in the history of the game. There is no attempt at a tag with the glove -- as a matter of fact, even with the ungloved hand he's nowhere near the runner. It's not a question of a tenth of a second or less. There simply was nothing even resembling a put-out in the vicinity of the play.
If I were managing, I’d be tempted to pull my team off the field.
I cringe whenever C.B. Bucknor or Angel Hernandez are calling balls and strikes.
I also cringe when Jeff Triplette is officiating an NFL game for the missed calls and exorbitant number of penalties called.
I do more than cringe when Hernandez is ANYWHERE on the field when my Cards are playing. That bastard has had it in for them since he first became an ump back in the 90’s.
Hate when C.B is there too but not as much as Hernandez.
