That's some real bullshit. Baez was safe.

I mean it's hard to overturn, but it seemed pretty clear to me.

I mean, the umpires in the park can't even make competent decisions this game, why should the umps in NY be any different?

Time for Cahill to throw away his second game in a row.

The problem there is that the umpire is in no position to make the call because he can't see the hand get in before the tag.

They need to put a camera directly over home plate for those kind of calls.

Didn't they used to have a "Southwest Airlines birds-eye view" camera that was directly over home plate at Wrigley years ago?

The best part of seeing the replay is that it showed the ump was completely out of position to make a call.

Edit: I honestly don't think I've ever seen a base runner get himself out like that. OG David Ross is in the on-deck :smug:
