“Oh god it’s an Angel Hernandez game. Lord help us all” - Umpire Angel Hernandez is behind the plate today, and Toronto Blue Jays fans are bracing themselves for brutal calls 

Angel Hernandez is behind the plate this afternoon as the Toronto Blue Jays take on the Minnesota Twins at home. The Blue Jays have won eight of their last 10 games, but their fans aren't feeling optimistic about this one.

Angel Hernandez is known to have an impact on games. He's made headlines several times this season for his brutal ball and strike calls. The most famous so far was the strike call against Philadelphia Phillies slugger Kyle Schwarber back in April. It was just a couple of inches off the plate, but the tension against Hernandez had been building up. In that game alone, he made a number of downright poor calls.

"Kyle Schwarber GOES OFF on Hernandez after being called out on strikes in the bottom of the 9th" - @ Ben Verlander

It's no surprise fans are worried about his performance today. Here's what they're saying about Hernandez on Twitter.

Umpire Hernandez is calling today's game between the Toronto Blue Jays and Minnesota Twins.

Most fans found out right before the game that Hernandez was today's home plate umpire. His name started trending on Twitter. Fans could smell the bad news.

"oh boy. why is Hernandez trending again?" - @ Jared Carrabis

This Jays fan is mentally preparing himself for today's inevitable umpire show.

"Sooooo... everyone ready for another Hernandez debacle?" - @ Garth Iorgy

This fan was sitting behind home plate and posted an up-close picture of Hernandez.

"ANGEL HERNANDEZ HAS BEEN SPOTTED" - @ Alejandro Kirk Enthusiast

This fan wants robot umpires immediately.

"Angel Hernandez is so terrible it’s crazy. Easy strike three missed. Next pitch is a bomb. Robots plz" - @ Starscourge Jodahn

It didn't take long for Hernandez to make a bad call today.

"It took Hernandez three pitches to miss his first call of the day behind the plate." - @ Ray Butler

This fan has a point: Hernandez is undeniably entertaining.

"Oh Boy… looks like Hernandez is behind the plate. I’m sure he’ll make it interesting. #Bluejays #Twins" - @ Crystal Craig

As this user calls it, Hernandez umping a game is some good "Saturday afternoon entertainment."

"If you are a baseball fan and you want some Saturday afternoon entertainment, Hernandez is the home plate ump in Toronto today. The ejection number is 0.5! Over or under?" - @ Mitchell Blair

The Minnesota Twins have things pretty bad right now. They've lost six of their last 10 games, and Angel Hernandez has been the home plate umpire in two of them.

"Two Hernandez home plate games in the span of 15 days? What have the #MNTwins done to deserve this, MLB?" - @ Tony Johnson

With Hernandez umping, there's no predicting today's score between the Toronto Blue Jays and Minnesota Twins.
