I am a Yankee fan, but this call in no way caused them to lose. The Yankees couldn't pitch, and couldn't hit with runners in scoring position.

But I went back and replayed (on Tivo) the play numerous times and Cano was running on the line. Granted he was just touching, but he was on the line. West called a great game, but was 10 or 15 feet off the line in foul territory and didn't have the best angle on this play. I am surprised that West bailed out the defense on this play.

I didn't affect the game, but I thought it was a bad call.
You need to get your Tivo fixed. Mine shows Cano clearly in fair territory the whole way.

By the way, how can his last three steps all be on the line? Did he hop on one foot?

Excellent call, and I'm in New York.

(Wait till next year. Our new coach will lead us back to the promised land.)
