Instant Replay Review confirmed HP Umpire Mike Estabrook's out call in the top of the 8th inning of the Astros-Blue Jays game. With one out and two on, Astros batter Dexter Fowler hit a 0-1 curveball from Blue Jays pitcher Brett Cecil on the ground back to Cecil, who threw to catcher Dioner Navarro as Astros baserunner R3 L.J. Hoes arrived at home plate. Upon Instant Replay Review as the result of a challenge by Astros Manager Bo Porter, Estabrook's ruling that Navarro tagged Hoes while Hoes was off his base was affirmed, the call was correct. At the time of the review, the Blue Jays were leading, 5-2. The Blue Jays ultimately won the contest, 5-2.

Man, its about time! I was starting to worry. Thankfully it seems that we can count on Renteria to come to our rescue by doing something silly. He is, after all, still 0-for on replays I believe.
I think he won one challenge against the pirates in the 3rd game last week but yeah its about time we see someone get ejected
Chris Conroy had one of the worst plate jobs we have seen in the Red Sox Rangers game Tuesday
I thought that this might turning to the MLUEFL, Minor League Umpire Ejection Fantasy League after this season, or maybe college.
I hope this opens up the flood gates.
So whoever has Jeff Nelson must be very happy right now.
