If they can review foul or fair

Why didn't they review that second double in the 1st inning? The one replay they showed made it look like a very close call, and Reid was hugging the line and it still got past his outstretched arm.
Who decides if they review something?

Yeah What is the rule about replays on things like that
Coaches argue all the time about fair or foul, does coach have to request replay?
If using for that why not use for close plays at 1st or home or on bases.
I know homeruns was the real reason they started using replay to begin with and it was to be limited.
To me if you review plays on foul balls why not do it the whole game because the ball down the line in the first was very close as well.

Every game would be 5 hours long.

You don't know that. It might have been, and they didn't show a bunch of replays of it, but the first replay i saw of it looked like it hit the line before the bag, and did not hit the line after the bag, so how the hell do you assume it went over the bag in fair territory.
I don't care if it was or wasn't, but why wasn't it reviewed, and who's supposed to get them to review it? Why did they review the one in the 9th?

only problem i had with the breaux ball, was giving him two bases - does that allow them to give him 3

The shot in live action showed it clearly foul. Never saw that shot again. The view they kept showing was taken from a very bad angle which made a fair call impossible.
The ump was right on top of the play.

I don't have a problem with it because Buddy can fly and he would've easily gotten atleast a double if they would've called it fair and played it out.
But I was wondering the same thing, does the ump just use his judgement on how many bases to give him in that situation? Or is it just a ground rule double?

I just can't figure out how or why the batter was given two bases.
When an ump calls foul, that's it, the play stops. It is like a referee's whistle. You can't determine what would happen if the whistle didn't blow.
To me, if an ump calls foul and the ball is really fair, then the pitch should not count and everyone goes back to where we were.
Last night was the baseball version of a play stopping on an inadvertant whistle, and the referee awarding a first down because if the whistle did not blow, the running back would have gotten a first down. I just don't see how you can do that.
Maybe the SEC could spring for some cameras straight down the lines, as well.

I think a better comparison would be a receiver catching a ball with no one within 20 yards but after the whistle so they settle for 10 and a first down. Doesn't make it right either way.
Honestly, I think if it played out as fair buddy ends up standing on second with time to spare. Interesting call either way.

This, how can you make a fair/foul call without a straight shot down the line. Total BS to make that call on an angle shot!

There is probably a better than 50/50 shot of that, sure, but what if he trips rounding first? What if he rounds second and then gets hung up after a great throw?
We can play the what if game all day long. That's why you can't make those decisions.
If the ump blew the call, the ump blew the call.
I would even go so far as to say, ok, give the kid first base. Maybe.

I think a better comparison is when there's a fumble that is whistled down and ruled not a fumble, defensive guy picks it up with no one around him and runs for a td, then they review it and it was a fumble and just give them the ball where he picked it up from, knowing full well he was going to score had the play not been called dead.
This is why he gets single after replay. Not a double.

This. The college game is long enough as it is.
