I always enjoy some classic comments from announcers. The play at first is my favorite here. Apparently, Joe West had the best view of that tag. (According to the the men in the booth). And the home plate ump made that call from 90 feet away. (According to the men in the booth). The tag was on the home side. No way Joe could see it. Home plate ump should be drifting up the line. And he is a pro, so I have to assume he was there to see it. Looks like they got it right. "When in doubt, bange em out" right?
Looks like Joe had it right at first, and after their conference, the umpires changed to the wrong call.

B/R clearly had the bag before, (and if) he was tagged on the back.

Gotta love the new warm and fuzzy umpiring.
