However, MLB fans had a different takeaway from the situation. Watching the fiasco in the Mexican league, fans started trolling the infamous MLB umpire, Angel Hernandez, on social media. One fan wrote, ”I’ll take drunk umpire over Angel Hernandez.”
Another fan attacked Angel for his past decisions, saying, ”Guarantee you he’d call a better game than Ángel Hernández.”

Notably, a former UVA baseball player thinks, Angel is worse than the drunk umpire, as he wrote, ”Wait till these dudes find out about Angel Hernandez.”
While it is undeniably inappropriate for the umpire to arrive drunk the game, here is a look back at one of MLB’s crazy drunk celebrations amidst the lockout.

Max Scherzer recently clinched a whopping $130 million for three years with the New York Mets. During the 2021 season, pitching star, Max had one insane celebration. The former Los Angeles Dodgers player went crazy when his team won the Wild Card game.

Max celebrated the victory by running around the field shirtless, while also admitting he had one too many to drink. Appearing for a post-game interview, Max said, ”Can’t talk. I’m drunk, whatever.”
