  We need to start implementing umpire perfect game alerts into broadcasts. Imagine the hype when the first one is finally performed.<br><br>... well, I&apos;d be hyped at least.

  “Did you put that ball into the Goblet of Strikes, Angel?” Schwarber explained calmly.

  Angel Hernandez is truly an inspiration, he didn&apos;t let his blindness stop him from achieving his dream of being an umpire for MLB.

  Pat Hoburg did, in fact, get the first perfect game. But he did not, in fact, work games for &quot;a lot longer&quot;.

  Umpires being too shy to make impactful calls is hilarious considering their chosen line of work. All officials get too much hate and not enough credit no matter the sport though. Great video, I have a weird urge to go form a union now.

  And HES DONE IT. Pat Hoberg called a perfect game...in the World Series no less. Truly a demon back there. His accuracy rates have gotten better over time, I give him leeway as he was starting out and that accounts for the lower average. It seems he&apos;s also over 98% nowadays though. Dudes just extremely good at his job, in a job that&apos;s not only quite difficult but one in which a lot of his fellows are shit.

  I have to be honest, that one &quot;miss&quot; by Hoberg is an entirely forgiveable call. It&apos;s close enough where nobody&apos;s really going to complain, especially given the circumstances (first pitch)
