Close Call Sports objectively tracks and analyzes close and controversial calls in sport, with great regard for the rules and spirit of the game. Developed from The Left Field Corner's MLB Umpire Ejection Fantasy League (UEFL), baseball's number one source for umpire ejections, video instant replay reviews and their corresponding calls, with great regard for the rules and spirit of the game.
HP Umpire Larry Vanover ejected Royals Manager Ned Yost (upheld Replay Review HR; QOCY) in the top of the 4th inning of the Mariners-Royals game. With one out and none on, Mariners batter Danny Valencia hit a 3-2 sinker from Royals pitcher Trevor Cahill on a fly ball to right field, initially ruled a fair ball and home run by 1B Umpire Chad Fairchild and affirmed via Replay Review, effected as the result of a Crew Chief review by Vanover. Replays indicate the batted ball appeared to make contact with the foul pole in flight and change direction before striking a railing in foul territory, the call was correct. At the time of the ejection, the Mariners were leading, 2-0. The Royals ultimately won the contest, 6-4.
This is Larry Vanover (27)'s second ejection of the 2017 MLB regular season.
Larry Vanover now has 6 points in the UEFL Standings (2 Prev + 2 MLB + 2 Correct Call = 6).
Crew Chief Larry Vanover now has 13 points in Crew Division (12 Previous + 1 Correct Call = 13).
