He's dogshit, along with Randy Marsh, Angel Hernandez, and Joe West.Fishhead said:In a 1986 <IF>TSN poll of its 26 correspondents, Froemming was voted the best all-around umpire in the NL and also the umpire with the quickest thumb. On September 2, 1972, the Cubs ' Milt Pappas was one pitch away from a perfect game. The 3-2 pitch to the Padres' 27th batter was called a ball by Froemming. Pappas pitched his no-hitter, but sulked for years that the call cost him a perfect game. Froemming simply explained that he had to call it a ball or he would have no integrity.

Just saw ANGEL on TV call a ball about 3 inches off the ground a strike and then proceed to toss out the manager seconds later in the Twins-O's game...Tino Martinez took a few jabs at him on the air....He's by far the worst ump in the game and every player and former player will tell you thatviking611 said:Angel Hernandez is the worst umpire ever (next to Don Denkinger-bastard). Hernandez makes me sick...if you ever watch a game he is doing...you will see someone argue with him at some point in the game...he blows atleast one call per game almost on a nightly basis.
Angel comes through again...terrible fukcing umpire...just cost cards 4 runs. This guy is always in on a controversial call in a game.viking611 said:Angel Hernandez is the worst umpire ever (next to Don Denkinger-bastard).

Froeming can barely get out of the way of a ball hit at him...hilarious to watch him waddle his fat ass around the field...how can he still be an ump!
Biggio ran out of base line to avoid inning ending double play...called him safe...run scores. Next batter walks, next batter 3 run bomb. tie game to down 4. Angel ALWAYS in on controversy....I would say 85% of games i see him ump.Journeyman said:Yea Angel is as bad as they come...he is alays in some controversy. What did he do now?
