Yeah, but it's one of those calls.
It's right over the middle of the plate.
If you're Perdomo, you have to swing and defend yourself there.
You don't want to be called out on the third strike.
So all the whining and complaining that the Dominican Republic and national analysts are doing, just...
It's not right.
That game was a thrilling end.
It should have been looked at that way.
If this is how it's going to be every time a ball's out of the strike zone during the regular season and somebody's out of a challenge, then guess what's going to happen?
You're going to have this complaint all the time.
There's no perfect system even with an ABS challenge system unless you do it on every single pitch, and maybe that day is coming.
But that was a great game.
There was a wonderful play by Julio Rodriguez in center field where Aaron Judge looked to have a home run.
and that was the name of the game, home runs in this one.
All three runs accounted for home runs.
And he went up and took it away.
What was most impressive is that previous inning, he got smacked right underneath the elbow or the arm, and it looked like he might be out.
Yeah, and so bottom line is there's some great plays on both sides.
And so USA now will wait until the outcome of tonight's game.
Italy and Venezuela.
