Angel Hernandez could learn a thing or two from Chad Fairchild here.
On Monday, in the middle innings of the New York Mets game versus the Atlanta Braves, pitcher Chris Bassitt had Dansby Swanson in a 2-2 count with two outs. Bassitt delivered what seemed to be a strike at first glance, as he even started walking off the field after retiring the side, but umpire Fairchild called the pitch a ball, extending the inning to the surprise of… well everyone!
