Brady Singer Got To Live Out Every MLB Fan And Player's Dream When He Screamed In Angel Hernandez's Face After Getting Taken Out Of The Game
If there is one thing Brady Singer hates more than rain it's Angel Hernandez. Like every single MLB fan Singer can't stand Hernandez and he showed it last night. Hernandez said that Singer hit Jose Ramirez with a pitch, but Singer and the Royals argued that it hit Ramirez's bat. Ramirez didn't react like he got hit at all, just kind of stood there but Angel’s always right so he sent him to first. I mean it clearly hit the knob of the bat and even after a review Ramirez was sent to first.
Mike Matheny and the Royals were not happy at all. Singer then gave up a double with 2 men on and the wheels were officially wobbling. Hernandez called Singer for a balk (which I think was the right call) anddddddd boom goes the dynamite. Matheny runs out to confront Hernandez and ends up getting ejected, as does pitching coach Cal Eldred. NO ONE shows up Angel Hernandez and gets away with it. At least they got their moneys worth because Hernandez was terrrrrible last night. Another run scored and the Royals 4-0 lead was now 4-3. Singer gets taken out and that is when he snapped.
We saw how emotional he could be when he was in college, but this was something new in the bigs. On his way to the dugout he is SCREAMING at Angel Hernandez, I mean SCREAMING. I'm trying to read his lips and it looks like he says "what the fuck are you doing?" and then throws his arms up in an ejection manner and gets in Hernandez's face again. There are people that would pay a lot of money to get in Angel Hernandez's face and scream at him for screwing up baseball calls for a long time. Brady Singer is a lucky guy. Singer ends up getting ejected even though he's out of the game so again, great job by Hernandez. Whit Merrifield comes sprinting in and basically pushes Singer into the dugout and it all cooled off from there but man was that awesome to see Hernandez get eaten alive, especially by a starting pitcher on his way out of the game. You don't see that much, but Singer is a guy who wears his emotions on his sleeve, he won't hid anything.
I'm happy he was able to blow off some steam, I'm sure he got some texts and emails from other players in the league who have been wanting to do that for a long, long time. Royals would go on to lose 5-4 much in thanks to Angel Hernandez. It's unreal how bad he is day in and day out. This is just hours after he fucked up a call in the game the night before where he basically admitted he didn't see the ball and just made a call. No clue how this guy is still umping in the bigs.
PS. Bonus clip of Brady singer yelling at another umpire during a rain delay. Guy hates umpires and rain.
