Best part was hearing McCarver rail against the call and claim that Aybar never touched the base all night and then the production crew went back and proved McCarver wrong.

Aybar never came close to the bag, either.
Another "neighborhood" play in top of 3rd in game 5 of WS.....and they even referred to the Aybar play!

Neighborhood only in McCarver's eyes. The replay showed that Rollins brushed the bag with his left foot as he stepped back to throw.

It was actually Mr. November, not Rollins.

The one last night was different from the Aybar play, but I wouldn't expect McCarver to remember that far back.

McCarver starts blathering on and on about some call, the replay shows it was fine, he has to say, "Oh, it looks like it was correct." Just another day at the office for him.
