If you guys didn't see it, they talked with steve Pailermo (sp?) in the stands. They had said he was in charge of the umpires or something to that affect. He had said that the umpires have been told that if they are absolutely certain that a wrong call was made, they are to correct it immediately. The reason given was so that it doesn't look as if a manager is influencing the decison if it is changed after an argument. Steve also said that if McClelland was positve about what he saw, then he did the right thing in over-ruling Hernandez immediately.
