Kyle Schwarber lost his mind after yet another terrible Angel Hernandez call and MLB fans loved it

To say Kyle Schwarber wasn’t happy with Angel Hernandez here would be… an understatement, to say the least.

On Sunday, the Philadelphia Phillies were down 1-0 to the Milwaukee Brewers in the bottom of the ninth. With Schwarber up to bat on a 3-2 count, one of the newest members of this year’s Phillies squad was looking to do some damage or get on base to start a rally.

Neither of those things happened because Hernandez made yet another terrible call at the plate. Schwarber took the low — but outside — 3-2 count pitch from Josh Hader and was on his way to first when Hernandez called the strikeout, prompting the outfielder to absolutely lose it on the umpire.

Schwarber got his money’s worth there, from the bat and helmet toss to the incredible heated gesticulating, resulting in an immediate ejection. And you can see why Schwarber had a problem with the call, because it was clearly outside the strike zone.

It’s clear this frustration had been building all game for the Phillies, as Bryce Harper wasn’t happy with a called strikeout he received in the first inning from Hernandez.

The Brewers too were on the receiving end of a brutal Hernandez strikeout of their own in the second inning off of Aaron Nola.

Yeah that’s… not great! Phillies manager Joe Girardi had some words about the situation after the game, stating pretty much what we’re all thinking.

Schwarber too had some choice words.

MLB fans celebrated Schwarber’s reaction after an absolutely bogus call in a big situation.
