Manuel Augusto González (born December 4, 1979) is a Venezuelan umpire in Major League Baseball (MLB). He made his major-league umpiring debut on May 17, 2010, filling in for John Hirschbeck, becoming the first Venezuelan umpire in MLB history.[1]
González umpired 11 MLB games in 2010, and returned to umpire 42 MLB games in 2011 before being hired to the full-time MLB staff in early 2013.[2][3] He issued his first career ejection on June 26, 2012, when Ike Davis was tossed for arguing a safe call at first base in Chicago.[4]
González was the second base umpire for the no-hitter by Alec Mills of the Chicago Cubs against the Milwaukee Brewers on September 13, 2020.[5] González was forced to leave a game at Fenway Park on September 6, 2021, after being hit in the mask by a foul tip while umpiring behind the plate.[6]
