MLB Instant Replay Review 005: Mike Winters (01)

Instant Replay Review confirmed HP Umpire Mike Winters' out call in the top of the 6th inning of the Indians-Athletics game. With one out and two on, Indians batter Asdrubal Cabrera hit a 0-0 slider from Athletics pitcher Sonny Gray back to Gray who threw to catcher John Jaso as Indians baserunner R3 Michael Brantley arrived at home plate. Upon instant replay review as the result of a request by Indians Manager Terry Francona and initiation by Crew Chief Winters, Winters' ruling that Jaso legally provided Brantley with a path to home plate until such time at which Jaso caught the ball and tag Brantley pursuant to Rule 7.13 (home-plate collision) was affirmed, the call was correct. At the time of the review, the contest was tied, 0-0. The Indians ultimately won the contest, 2-0.
