[Highlight] Aaron Judge throws up the oven mitt and blocks the Brewers double play attempt

  1. I was pretty sure this was going to be overturned to a double play. Can someone explain why not? Just because his hand was already up?

  2. I don’t get how they can’t call interference on that? But they can call it on a player running in the basepath like the Trea Turner World Series play? Makes no sense.

    Judge does that most slides to keep his hands from rolling under him, so not intentional. But I’m with you brewers fans, that’s some BS.

  3. Hard to see why this can’t be reviewed

    Edit: Verdugo just scored with 2 outs because of this

  4. Think it should be ruled interference. If he had a barehand he wouldn’t even attempt that

  5. I’m in the shittiest seats in the stadium and even I could tell that should’ve been called.

  6. It’s weird to me that you can slide in an absolutely abnormal way, block the ball, and not get anything for a potentially game-changing breakup on a double play.

    But, baseball and making sense to me aren’t always friends.

    Edit: I guess I can remove “potentially” since this play now helped turn a 4-4 tie into a 4-7 game.

  7. One of the strangest and worst calls I’ve ever seen. It was blatant. And oh, now the inning is still going on.

  8. I’m fine with big slides (like Hoskins) but if you touch the ball it should be a double play

  9. Dear lord this thread got tribal QUICK.

    Yes, Judge (and others) do this almost every slide into second. Yes, it should be interference if you actually get the ball. Why is this hard guys

  10. Interference calls have been really poorly applied so far this season.

    The league needs to put out better guidance.

    Really bad call here.

  11. I assume when you’re a massive giant human, these types of plays are allowed? 

  12. The Yankees later scored SEVEN runs all with two outs because the Brewers simply could not get that 4th out
