I don't believe for one minute that they can do whatever they want but, they "are at the pinnacle of their craft" and thats something everyone of us wish we could be at also. Unfortunately though, as many wish, perfection will never happen. |

I just can't believe that U3 was so certain it bounced that he was able to convince U1 to overturn the call.
Love Vin Scully. It's a crying shame I can't get the Dodger broadcasts where I live without going through MLB TV. |

Not a catch.

What this clip also showed was that U1 never changed his initial call. After U3 left the crew discussion to inform the manager of the decision, the camera stayed on the remaining three umpires. The impression I got was that U1 wasn't happy with the reversal.

Question on MLB protocol on such things... Doesn't the calling umpire have to agree for the call to be reversed?
