Missed calls and shaky umpiring have been an embarrassment for Major League Baseball throughout this postseason.

Must be an Angels fan b/c the call at 1B was right. He held the base long enough for the call. He doesn't have to maintain contact with the base throughout the entire play. Just have secure possession of the ball while touching the base, which he did. Laz's call was right and a good call.
Just another McCarver reporter writing things which he has no idea about.
