Instant Replay Review upheld 1B Umpire Bill Welke's out call in the bottom of the 3rd inning of the Athletics-Rays game. With one out and three on, Rays batter Desmond Jennings hit a 3-2 fastball from A's pitcher Drew Pomeranz on the ground to shortstop Nick Punto, who threw to second baseman Eric Sogard to first baseman Brandon Moss and Jennings arrived at first base, Rays baserunner R1 Brandon Guyer out at second. Upon Replay Review as the result of a challenge by Rays Manager Joe Maddon, Welke's ruling was affirmed, the call was correct. At the time of the review, the A's were leading, 3-0. The A's ultimately won the contest, 3-0.
