MLB Instant Replay Review 088: Chris Segal (01)

Instant Replay Review upheld 1B Umpire Chris Segal's out call in the bottom of the 9th inning of the Athletics-Angels game. With one out and none on, Angels batter Howie Kendrick hit a 1-2 changeup from A's pitcher Luke Gregerson on the ground to second baseman Nick Punto, who threw to first baseman Daric Barton as Kendrick arrived at first base. Upon Instant Replay Review as the result of a challenge by Angels Manager Mike Scioscia, Segal's ruling that Barton caught the ball and tagged first base prior to Kendrick's arrival was affirmed, the call was correct. At the time of the review, the A's were leading, 3-2. The A's ultimately won the contest, 3-2.
