FILE - New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone, center, argues a call with umpire Angel Hernandez, right, as Gleyber Torres, left, watches during the first inning of a baseball game against the Toronto Blue Jays, April 7, 2024, in New York. Longtime umpire Hernández, who unsuccessfully sued Major League Baseball for racial discrimination, is retiring immediately, announced Monday, May 27, 2024.
“Umpiring is not easy. It’s hard,” Schumaker added. “I don’t know why he retired so quick, there’s probably something behind that. I think the game tells you when you should retire. The game told me when I should retire. I hope he has a really good retirement and enjoys himself.” “At one point, it stinks, but one side of is it kind of cool, actually, to be one the last guys,” Langford said.“I forgot how bad it was, the last pitch,” he said.
San Diego Padres slugger Manny Machado said some players will miss him and some won’t. He’ll remember Hernández as being “so nice, so kind. He had that old-school mentality. Said Philadelphia Phillies manager Rob Thomson: “That’s the last job I’d ever want. I’m telling you, because there’s so much scrutiny. But he’s a good man. He loved the game, so I wish him all the best.”
