That's the right call, but I still wish it went the other way.

The side view showed his foot was on, but it looks like his foot came off when he stretched for the ball.

Because Javy's left foot slide into the fielders foot. It was off the bag, but it was also kind of close.

Calling Javy out was the right call.

Also don't they have some rule where they have 2 minutes max to make a call or it stands?

We only got one replay angle in the stands and it looked at best inconclusive from here.

They had a shot from along the 3rd base line in left field that showed Javy missed the bag on his slide very clearly. I'll hunt around for a clip and post a gif if I can.

just checking in with my cubs buddies in this thread, i read this crazy blurb in the paper today and it says here that Jon Lester-- a professional baseball pitch man, cannot throw to first base.

Hah good one! A pitcher in the majors who CAN'T throw over to first? That'll be the day.

A few months of bouldering combined with a decent amount of yoga have me pretty flexible. Rizzo is much more flexible than I am.
