If the umpires are going to decide on their own to go for the review, then go for the review before accepting the substitute. If the coach asks for it then he should have asked before the pr.

Agree with Bob. PR can run out the rest of the home run though.

That play actually happened. The B/R was officially credited with a HR but NOT the run scored. The PR got credit for that.

One would think that once the substitution was made you can't unring the bell. Sort of like waiting for the pinch hitter to be officially announced before changing pitchers.

Upon further review / Giants win in 10 after Molina's weird homer

This is the article about the Bengie Molina HR. The Giants played under protest but they won so it didn't get ruled on. I can see why MLB does not do what I'm going to suggest, but it wouldn't hurt to have MLB respond to each protest with reasons and rules and interpretations cited. It would be a good way to build a "case law" book that even fans would have access to. It would be how the Armbrister/Fisk play was commented on.
