Adam Curtis Hamari (born May 25, 1983) is a Major League Baseball (MLB) umpire.
Hamari began umpiring baseball for Little League teams at the age of 12.[1] He began umpiring Minor League Baseball games in 2006, and was promoted to the major leagues on a part-time basis in 2013. Hamari was one of four umpires named to the full-time staff in February 2017, upon the retirements of Jim Joyce, John Hirschbeck, Tim Welke and Bob Davidson.[2]
