on the ball that bounced up and DID hit the batter in the box but was called a fair ball and the out was recorded? There should NOT have been a conference because if ANY umpire in the field actually saw the ball hit the batter he should have called it IMMEDIATELY, if no one did that there should be NO conference. Then they have a review on a play that is NOT reviewable by rule they overturn the call by the HP ump. They go it right by every standard except MLB rules. :eek:

No one else thinks it was strange thing for them conference about a play a base umpire SHOULD call as soon as he sees it? What do they say in that conference? Well now that you bring it up I did see the ball hit the batter but I just didn't see fit make the call? Then they review a play that according to MLB rules is NOT reviewable?
