My rule for 2019 (which I have stuck to the whole season) is after nine,  I turn it off and go to bed.  It saves me the aggravation.

The runner did not touch the plate. The catcher did not tag the runner. A run was not scored and an out was not recorded. Therefore, yesterday’s game is still live. I figure all that Sisco needs to do is tag Gurriel before today’s game commences and Hyde needs to appeal the MLB to reverse its decision. 

Game over - O’s Win!

The Orioles want to lose though to help with their draft pick.  The Roysls are making it tough on us.

It was like that last year until we played them. Then we really got the upper hand on them by strategically losing all those games to them.

What is the actual rule in a case like that? If the replay ump had concluded that neither plate touching nor tagging occurred what happens then? In the Fred Merkle case the umpire on the field  called the famous out. It does look like Sisco's leg is touching home plate when he has possession of the ball....which is all you have to do in a case when the runner misses the plate and runs off toward the dugout. But did Sisco have to make an actual appeal to the umpire to have that count?

So he did touch the plate?

Sisco could have prevented this by not dropping the throw or made a deliberate effort to tag Gurriel after he dropped the throw. 

Sisco should probably start learning how to play another position.

Evidently not.

Well, at least way more than Sisco tagged him

I think the official call was Gurriel touched the plate before any tag; confirmed by the replay ump.

Only she says it is still a tie. Play on. Play on.
