MLB Instant Replay Review 072: Gerry Davis (01)

Instant Replay Review overturned 1B Umpire Gerry Davis' out call in the top of the 1st inning of the Indians-White Sox game. With one out and one on, White Sox pitcher Felipe Paulino attempted to pick off Indians baserunner R1 Nyjer Morgan, throwing to White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu as Morgan's hand arrived at first base. Upon Instant Replay Review as the result of a challenge by Indians Manager Terry Francona, Davis' ruling that Abreu tagged Morgan prior to Morgan's return to first base was reversed, the call was incorrect. At the time of the review, the contest was tied, 0-0. The Indians ultimately won the contest, 12-6.
