I am watching the O's/Red Sox game on TV and IR comes up. There was a long foul ball that was just foul and correctly called. The O's announcers were saying that they had started tracking the calls on home games that would be reviewable. They didn't give a number of videos they had tracked but the number that they thought would be overturned? Zero.

I thought it was interesting that they decided to do the survey, then admit that none would be overturned is twice as interesting.

I think IR is going to show just how good these guys are at their craft. The amount of great calls is so overwhelming compared to the missed bangers that get repeated over and over on Sports Center for a day and a half. It will be interesting to see the reaction of the media when the numbers come back and the public sees the huge % of reviews that are NOT overturned. ( I hope)
