Not supporting Hernandez at all, but it would have been better to mention a play where Hernandez was actually incorrect.

Tim,
McClelland actually got the HR call CORRECT. Angel called it a foul ball and McClelland overuled him right away (during the play as the batter was rounding the bases).
Yeah, it looked bad for Tim to do that and I probably would never do that to my partner without atleast talking about it first, but McClelland fair ball ruling was correct.
