Instant Replay Review overturned 3B Umpire Lance Barrett's safe call in the bottom of the 9th inning of the Mariners-Marlins game. With none out and two on, Marlins batter Marcell Ozuna hit a 3-1 fastball from Mariners pitcher Yoervis Medina on the ground back to Medina, who threw to third baseman Kyle Seager as Marlins baserunner R3 Reed Johnson arrived at third base. Upon Instant Replay Review as the result of a challenge by Marlins Manager Mike Redmond, Barrett's ruling that Seager legally caught the ball and tagged third base prior to Johnson's arrival was reversed, the call was incorrect. At the time of the review, the contest was tied, 4-4. The Marlins ultimately won the contest, 8-4.
