Looked away from the replay. Was he safe timing-wise, or was it the vicinity rule or whatever the term they use is?
Angels had a luck infield hit that was supposed to a sacrifice, a blown suicide squeeze that turned into only sacrifice, and bloop single that score the run when the Astros should have just loaded the bases to have a force at every base, and a hot by pitch. On top of all that they only got 1 run, though that was partially due to luck given that President of the Astros Killers, Albert Pujols, struck out.
Except his foot wasn't on the bag when he caught the ball. BS neighborhood play that isn't reviewable.
Just a running count... we've now burned Tucker AND Villar without actually getting an AB. But Valbuena's going to homer here to make that a moot point.
I don't have an issue with it. They call it both ways pretty consistently. Almost never see someone called safe at 2nd on a DP-type ball
