It's insane to assume he would've caught the ball. He might have. He might not have. Saying he was 100% going to catch the ball is incredibly naive.

Also, the dude who "interfered" was basket catching the ball against his stomach. Clearly, that guy wasn't reaching over. Mookie's hand was over the line.

Orange colored lenses... the guy basket catching isn't the one making contact with Betts. This is after contact where a Stro fan can say it's at or over the line and a Sox fan can say the fan is reaching into the field of play. You will see this picture how your fandom tells you to. There wasn't enough evidence either way to confirm or overturn the call on the field.


The Astros did not lose because of this call. They stranded 13 and failed to take advantage of a less than stellar bullpen. You need timely hitting especially in the post-season and can't afford bad baserunning.
