Again ..... not about the call on the field ........it's about the replay review and how they don't have enough evidence and/or, what they're seeing....

......from the video, I was able to capture this .... :HS

Not enough to overturn it - limping down the line - long turn I give it to the D

Jeff, are you an umpire or a Tigers fan? That's an out!

I guess I'm not seeing what you're seeing: your screen shot shows ball in glove.

I agree, Jeff.  How did NY not see this differently upon review with all the angles they purportedly have???

Ball is not yet in the back of the glove, and the runner's foot is clearly "deeply" planted on the base, which means the actual touch would have began milliseconds before that screen shot, so safe

​That's not the standard they've been applying.

The replay system is baffling. I'll find the Dexter Fowler steal play the other day and post it. Joyce called him out at second, the replay clearly showed him safe, and they upheld the out call.

​I'm an umpire, that's why it's posted here, and that's why I'm confused.

No maven, that ball is not in the glove, that's why it looks like a white line ......still moving

​What is the standard they've been applying, then? That's what I heard.

During the 2014 The Third Team documentary, there was a banger on a head first slide at first.  Eric Cooper called the runner safe.  Upon review, the call was reversed to an out.  The criteria used was the movement of the glove caused by impact of the ball hitting the pocket.  They concluded that the second the ball hit the glove the BR's hand was not on the bag,  As a result, they overturned the call on the field. 

So...  Is the standard the ball hitting the glove???
