Just saw the Cubs review both ends of a double play grounder. I figured they would have to choose which to review first since a confirmed review results in loss of the challenge going forward. The umpire announced "Chicago is challenging the safe call at second and the safe call at first." When the review is done, it was "The call at second base is confirmed, the runner is safe, the call at first is overturned, the runner is out." The Cubs also retained their challenge. Is that in the rule? You can review as many reviewable aspects of a play and as long as one is overturned, you get to keep the challenge? Seems backward to me.
