The Mets hold a half-game lead as the All-Star break approaches, relying on fine margins in calls on the field. A crucial moment occurred when Royals' Bobby Witt attempted to steal second base. Despite appearing safe, a close inspection of the play by the Mets' replay analyst, Harrison Friedland, led to a successful challenge. This replay decision showcased how minor details can influence game outcomes significantly, exemplifying the impact of video technology in baseball.
Witt was heading there in the eighth, where Lindor was waiting for Torrens's throw. Friedland, the Mets' analyst of video replays, was the most interested of observers.
Our favorite gesture, however, is the fist pump we make when an opponent's stolen base is microscopically examined and eventually overturned.
