This happened between the Dodgers and Cardinals several days ago.
Mookie Betts singles to right and Andy Pages is on his way home from second base.
Phillies right fielder Adolis Garcia comes up firing and throws a strike to home plate.
The catcher goes to tag, Pages slides- the call- safe!
The Cardinals challenged the call but in looking over the replay you can see that Andy Pages never touched home plate. But, the challenge was to see if the catcher tagged him. Replay rules that the catcher did not tag him. So the call stands- he’s safe!
But, he missed home plate! Replay does not have the authority to change the call just because he missed home plate. 🤯
That is a bizarre play!����
Do you think a call should be overturned if they are looking at a particular part of the play but notice something else like this where the runner didn’t touch home plate?
This batter hits a hard shallow liner into right field.
The right fielder is charging and fires to first. The ball is overthrown and the runner looks but decides to stay at first.
The catcher backed up the overthrown ball and throws to first and he rages the runner.
The umpire calls him out and says he made an attempt to go to second base.
I think he looked but I don’t see an attempt. He stayed in fouls territory the whole time. Just because his head looked doesn’t mean he made an attempt.
50/50 people saying he’s out for an attempt and others say no attempt, he should be safe.
What’s your call? Safe or out? An attempt to second or no attempt?
Is football the only event for the stadium? I live in Tennessee and they have much more than Titan games in Nashville. Why have an owner calling the shots who and when the stadium is used?
@KCPSShain The Bears had 5 years to convince lawmakers how giving them a tax deal would be good for taxpayers and they couldn't do it and this was after having 20 years to think about it after forcing taxpayers to renovate soldier field
