No replay challenges allowed? (Sorry I’ve lost track of MLB rules)

They said that isn't reviewable.

By the way, that single eventually scored breaking Mason Miller's scoreless inning streak of 34 2/3 innings that went back to August 6th of last year.

Next time don't remove it, just point it out. Once you remove it the call stands.

Yeah, should wait until the ump calls it.

Ball wasn't touching the line but ump might have seen the ball hangover the line.

But it has to touch the line if on the ground, to be fair...I think.

And the ball was almost still in motion when he touched it. What a bad decision.

He probably grabbed it because he didn't want it to hit a pebble and roll back fair, which can happen.

He moved the ball. It was a fair ball. I used to umpire in a minor leagues.

He sure did pull away from that line as soon as he picked it up, looked a little shady.

Probably trying not to knocked in himself, whgich he can't do, as it is called the moment he touches it.

That move was unnecessary, but obviously even to the player it was close.

I can picture that.
