What should have been a go ahead 3 run homer by Young was reviewed and STILL called foul. Royals survive.
How the hell can this happen? Really unreal if this effects playoffs.

Was it actually a home run or foul?
People I follow on twitter saying it was a home run at first then to them it looked foul.

it was a home run. the "foul" view was too close up (therefore too fast for the camera to pick up) to really be able to pick up the ball against the post. on the "home run" view the shot was far enough out that the speed would have allowed you to see the ball against the post if it really was foul.

did you not see the replays? Not enough visual evidence to overturn the play.
Go back to trying to figuring out why LSU fans have to root for 'Bama for the bigger picture.

There was too! There was enough visual evidence to tell that it definitely wasn't foul. As I said the camera angle on the "other view" wasn't good enough to conclude, so you should go with the "ball disappeared around the pole = HR" angle.

that the grainy SD feed from the zoomed in left field camera isn't capable of capturing a speeding white baseball against a yellow pole.
the ******* HD camera from behind the plate showed it fair.
Clearly it can't be BOTH foul and fair at the same time. So you go with the FAR superior camera view.

I just cannot believe that this is going to die.
the camera view that "showed the ball as foul" was not capable of picking up a cream colored ball going against a yellow background at 80 miles per hour for less than 1/10th of a second.
really an unbelievable outcome. I am 100% sure that ball was fair.

tigers seem to get robbed a lot

yeah and nobody is talking about it. ESPN's highlight clip doesn't even bother to show the controversy, and the official AP press writeup of the game dismisses it in a single sentence.
Nobody with the Tigers seems to have the IQ to realize that if both camera views (from seperate angles) show the ball "disappearing" behind the foul pole that is a physical impossibility.
They should be making the case that the camera angle which appeared to show the ball "foul" was grainy and inconclusive.

Had a parlay that would've hit for 200 if that call had not been botched.
Oh well. KC deserved the win. They rocked Verlander.

it was pretty obvious by young's reaction that he knew the ball was foul.
It was also pretty obvious to anyone without a dog in the fight that the ball was foul.
I'd assume this is why no one is making a big deal about a call being right.

O's extend their lead to two games over the Tigers.

How much money did you have on this one?

Leyland had no problem with the call, and even said so to the media after the game.
I don't understand how you are so sure on this?
