Matt Shaw coupe un joueur au sol qui est resté juste et a commis une faute à la dernière seconde, mais l’arbitre du marbre Dan Merzel a jugé que c’était une balle juste à la 9e (avec rediffusions)

What a way to end the streak
One of the worst calls i’ve seen
The amount of daylight between the chalk and the dirt is wicked on closer look
They really can’t use replay for something this easy to check? Dumb.
FUCK DAN MERZEL
The ball is round and there isn’t much of a gap. The umpire is looking right down the line and we aren’t. It seems plausible to me that part of the ball is over the line.
Unstoppable force Mason Miller vs immovable object blind umpire
That baserunner ended up breaking miller’s scoreless streak btw
I’m not mad don’t put in the newspaper I am mad

Matt Shaw later scored to end Miller’s scoreless streak (he gave up another run later, so even if Shaw’s AB ends in an out it’s possible he still gives up a run)
It is not where the ball is touching the ground. If any part of the ball overhangs onto the line, it is still fair.
Bro might not make it out of the stadium
looks fair to me
It’s booing on sight for Dan Merzel forever. Dan Merzel, Ken Rosenthal. Fuck em both.
Padres fans cheering bad umping are now against it?
It’s not as blatant as people think it is. Soccer fans will be very familiar. Daylight between the ball and the line does NOT conclusively mean it was foul. OBR:
>A FAIR BALL is a batted ball [..] that, while on **or over** fair territory touches the person of an umpire or player
If any part of the ball was *over* fair territory, it’s a fair ball. Not just where the bottom of the ball is touching.
What a shit call to end the streak. How is this not challengeable???
Anybody got a source to the rule? I couldn’t seem to find any describing this situation.
Is the cylinder of the ball over the line fair? Because that ball was clearly not touching ANY chalk.
Genuinely how are you this inept
Any closer and he’s in France’s pocket
The ball is a sphere, from the top down angle I’m sure the ball looked like it was clipping the line.
Guess you get special treatment when you’re Charlie Kirk’s boy toy.
Dan Merzel is clearly visually impaired.
Parallax strikes again. Ump was all over that shit.
I’ll post it here too since people seem to not know the rules and downvote people who are explaining the rules in this thread as well

What an idiot.
The replay isn’t even in focus and you can tell it’s foul!
I thought there was some like fine print in the rules about this and the ump was being a stickler but right. Like was this out of spite?
It’s a good call? From above it’s touching. Like in soccer and in any sports with a line like that. Do we understand how POVs work?
I’ve watched this four or five times now. Can someone explain to me how everyone is so absolutely certain from those camera angles that no part of the ball was overhanging the line when the ball was touched? From the fair side angle, if anything, I’d say it’s more likely than not that the ball was slightly over the line when considering the sphere shape.
Stammen shoulda made a scene and gotten tossed in that situation. Kinda a bitch move not too
