1. MLB should have gotten this right. Blatant as can be right there on the big screen for everybody. Something should have been done. Great tone to set , umps.

2. How is this not reviewable?

3. Not reviewable I guess for some reason?

   Makes the umps look like babies

4. It’s just so weird that things like this can’t reviewed. Like, we’re all watching it with multiple camera angles at home. And then we just have to take the call on the field? How does that make any sense

5. Broadcast did an awful job of explaining why this wouldn’t be reviewable 

6. I don’t blame the ump, that’s hard to recognize, and it’s clear he understood that it did hit his foot when discussing. Hands are tied by what’s reviewable. 

   What is crazy is that this is not reviewable. 

7. Those concord’s have a blemish god damn it!!!!

8. George Springer can go suck a dick

9. Because of course they do

10. Already with the bullshit

11. not reviewable lmao, why review anything if something that takes a second to fix is ignored

12. What an absolute joke

13. I literally sat there and was like “how the fuck does that stand?” Grisham knew it hit him immediately, bro didn’t even try to run to first. That alone should say he knew what happened that New York should’ve taken a look. Can’t be having shit like this happen.

14. 1st pitch of the game set this Murphy’s Law game into motion

15. The technology available to the people officiating an MLB game in 2025 is absolutely incredible. Yet the game intentionally not taking advantage of it is absolutely silly.

16. All he had to do was overact and hop away or even fall down

17. Like they do in basketball. Gotta sell it

18. No way ump can see this. Has to be reviewable. Do we have replay or not?

19. 😭

20. Can you imagine be able to see this in real time?

21. It’s 6-1 man. Umpires make mistakes they are human. We scored 1 run!!

    Bases loaded 0 outs and get 1 run. That’s how you loose baseball games. Not umps 😂

22. New York Tankees

23. Bad miss but nearly impossibly to catch in real time. They will change the rule
    And you will be able to review foul balls next year.

24. Didn’t touch him.

25. Yanks getting spanked

26. How else are yall gonna have something to blame the loss on. This one ground out in the first inning made us completely meltdown. ❄️

27. 😭 cry babies

28. Should it be reviewable? Yes.

    Should you call it clearly when you need high speed camera footage to see it? No.

29. Yan·kee
