Recreating the MLB review system, a breakdown

The video breaks down a close call at third base during a Diamondbacks game where Corbin Carroll was ruled out trying to steal. The umpire made the out call, Carroll seemed surprised, and the Diamondbacks challenged. The replay center had multiple angles synced up, and the video walks through the decision-making process as if the viewer is part of the review team. One angle clearly shows Carroll’s foot hitting the base, while another raises doubt about whether the tag brushed him just before that. The glove might have touched his leg, but it’s too hard to say for certain. Without the pressure of the original call, the narrator leans toward calling him safe. But in MLB, the original call stands unless there’s clear evidence to overturn it. Since the replay wasn’t definitive, the out call held. The video ends with a critique of that system, questioning why the original call carries so much weight when it’s the exact thing being reviewed.
