I don't know if this would ever make the list of calls eligible for an IR review but, I believe the right call was made for the given situation though.
Why, the umpire was right on top of the play and the ball beat the runner to the bag. The fielder made a swipe tag that could or could not have got the tip of the runners fingers. The runner had a slight hesitation getting to second. The umpire did not have the benefit of reviewing the call 3 times at 3different angle's either.
It is impossible to have perfection in an unperfect game.
Batters only hit around 30%.
Pitchers are probably less that 60% effective.
Fielders make errors.
Humans play the game.
The ONLY thing we have not taken into consideration here is the media.
They make there living and thrive on the controversy. Right or Wrong
