There must be something about Braves-Brewers games that brings out the worst in MLB’s broken replay system because it happened again on Monday.
You may remember back during the 2021 National League Division Series when the Brewers pulled off a tip-drill catch in foul territory to retire Adam Duvall in Game 4. As incredible as that catch was, it became awfully clear that the ball hit the ground. The play, though, wasn’t reviewable because MLB’s terrible replay system only allows reviews for trap/catch situations in the outfield — not the infield.
Well, on Monday, we saw a similar scenario go the Braves’ way on an inexcusable missed call by the umpires.
