i dont understand how people can be this outraged on the call when Turner clearly couldve avoided the potential of that being called by just running in the running lane at any point
i guess everyone wants to bitch, but its really as simple as if turner was in the running lane there is no way he gets called for interference

The “intentional” part gives leeway to make it subjective given that qualifier inherently requires some assessment of “intent.” It was dumb to call that on the umpire’s part, he was likely at least subconsciously influenced by the glove flying around.

That’s not the running lane, which is why the rule is controversial and has been for ages.

The rule is written to stop what Arod did in the World Series where he slapped the first baseman’s glove
The ump simply got tonight’s call wrong. It happens. It was a bang bang play and live it kinda looked like it may have been intentional
The crime, is this not being at least reviewable, and Torre doubling down and saying the call was correct

That is true, but he was inside the running lane basically the entire way to first base, which I guess caused the ump to make a bad judgement call
However, I’ve seen multiple ex players and analysts on tv over the last 30 minutes say it was the right call and some say it was wrong call

It would be awkward as hell to take that route as a righty
For example

The bag is outside of the lane so there is an exception in the rule that allows the runner to come out of the lane to touch the bag.

The gif that someone posted really shows Turner hugging the shite out of the IF grass up to about 3/4 of the way though but that happens all the time and rarely gets called. The still shot of his foot hitting the bag is pretty useless and basically meaningless because it doesn’t show the context of what was happening with Gurriel, regardless of how goofy he was playing, and how bad the throw was. I know I’m incredibly biased, but with the glove flying and the fact that he was running way more biased to the grass than not for most of the play, I can see why the ump did what he did. I still don’t like the call and it wouldn’t have sat right if we won Game 6 in a close one.

Yeah it happens all the time as it should. Why would a runner take that extra step to get wide?

It not being reciewable, Torre’s statement on it, and the ridiculous delay were more egregious

The fielder actually interfered with the runner while the runner was in a legal position.

Fielders have a right to occupy any space needed to catch or field a batted ball and also must not be hindered while attempting to field a thrown ball.
The ignorant should also watch the video in this link if you think a runner has legal position.

He did.

This was not a batted ball - so that rule doesn't apply.
There is a rule that prevents a runner to first base from being inside the field of play for the last 2/3 of the way to 1st base when the play is coming from behind him.
Unless they have changed it
You cannot obstruct the throw to first baseman in the field of play - you must be in foul territory in that instance.
I don[t understand the confusion over this - it was CLEARLY interference..
HAVE THEY CHANGED THAT RULE??????

OK - so the rule has not changed. -

What the hell are you watching?? = the runner was NEVER in foul territory = "to the right of the foul line. He was ENTIRELY in the field of play - even on the grass at times - intentionally tying to interfere with the play.
People arguing about this must be stupid.

People don't seem to understand the runner establishes a "base path" to every base except for first base. The second line is there for a reason. If he ran within those lines until the bag, they would have a better case.
