Controversial MLB umpire Angel Hernandez is retiring immediately after decades of criticism for his inconsistent calls and quick ejections. Despite not being forced out, Hernandez has not umpired since May as he negotiated a financial agreement with MLB. His departure follows years of players and officials calling for his exit due to the distractions he caused. Hernandez, who began his MLB career in 1991, cited a desire to spend more time with family and acknowledged the positive changes in baseball, including minority promotion.
