PFX#: HP Umpire CB Bucknor called Tigers-A's game at 95.3% accuracy (top 50% of postseason umps), +2 or 1.3% skew (adv Detroit). Britain's Wiggins made a funny face on the podium. Rose, Stenson set us up for memorable Rio Sunday.
Welcome to Better Know An Umpire , an effort to educate ourselves on the human elements who have ultimate decision-making power over some 2,500 Major League Baseball games a year. Name: CB Bucknor . Uniform number: 54.
Umpire CB Bucknor faced some backlash on Tuesday night after making a horrendous call to give the Atlanta Braves a second chance against the Washington Nationals.
Chase d’Arnaud was up for the Braves with the bases loaded and two outs in the 9th, with his team trailing 3-1. Facing a 1-2 count, d’Arnaud swung and clearly missed a pitch that bounced in the dirt.

Trump records call for GOP hopeful in House race in Kansas
<p>President Donald Trump stepped into a surprisingly competitive special congressional election in Kansas Monday, recording a get-out-the-vote call on behalf of Republican candidate Ron Estes.</p>The robocall from Trump came as the contest also pulled U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas to Wichita to campaign for Estes and amid a flood of out-of-state GOP money ahead of Tuesday's election in the 4th Congressional District of southern Kansas. It was the first special congressional election since Trump's election as president last year.

Possibly because the ball had bounced in the dirt, Bucknor called that a foul ball, giving d’Arnaud a second chance. D’Arnaud struck out a second time, ending the game. There was a big mess because Bucknor originally called it foul, then seemed to indicate the game was over, then called it a foul ball again.
Afterwards Nats outfielder Jayson Werth called on MLB to do something about Bucknor:
Jayson Werth on C.B. Bucknor: "When it's consistently not with the standards of the league, something needs to be done."
— Dan Kolko (@masnKolko) April 19, 2017
Werth had words for Bucknor after the game. He probably was not happy about the way Bucknor called this at-bat for him:
@MLB — Time for CB Bucknor to call it a career. Embarrassing end to a major league game & too many phantom strikes. #Natspic.twitter.com/KQjUlVXMjC

Max Scherzer’s wife wanted Bucknor to have to answer for his poor calls:
When will umpires be held accountable after games? Players and managers face the media, might be time umps do too…
— Erica May-Scherzer (@emaysway) April 19, 2017
This sort of thing is nothing new for Bucknor, who is consistently ranked by players as one of the worst umps in the game. One of his biggest blunders was this one from 2013. MLB needs to address this.

The Marlins tonight won their 59th game of the season, over the Phillies, no thanks to this call at first by umpire CB Bucknor . If this weren't a senioritis game between two also-rans, it would definitely go down as one of the biggest botched calls in recent memory.
