New York Yankees won the victory on Sunday.
But it did not come without an arbitration controversy which may cost the Slugger Aaron judges a home run.
new York marked a laundry 4-0 Above the Rays of Tampa Bay who presented another dominant effort from the first year launcher Max Fried, which improved at 4-0 and lowered its ERA throughout the season to 1.42 with 7 2/3 rounds with two strokes.

But fans of the Yankees – and manager Aaron Boone – are heated on an eighth round explosion by a judge who looked like a home run, but was tried a ball.
Was it a home run?
The fault ball in question took place on a complete count without withdrawal at the top of the eighth while the Yankees had a 3-0 lead. The judge sent a change of Eric Orze on the left field line which easily cleaned the fence of the outside field.
But he was tried Foul on the field and called Foul at first glance by the dissemination of the Yankees. But the referees initiated a review to take a look at another angle. And a shot on the line of the distribution of the Network yes seemed to show that the judge judge erases the fence inside the pole for lack before clinging and landing in the trees beyond the field of field of Steinbrenner.
But the angle was not enough to convince those responsible for the replay to overthrow the call. They confirmed the call on the ground of a lack of lack.

Land later, the judge fell back close, and Boone lost him. The manager of the Yankees left the canoe and delivered a few words of choice to the marble referee Adam Beck. He was immediately ejected before sharing words with more members of the arbitration crew when leaving.
Boone had challenged calls to the previous house throughout the game. But he was clearly animated on the apparent Home Run of the judge who was not the withdrawal of the previous judge.
Is the Tampa Printemps Minor League Stadium blamed?
So, should he have been called a home run? It is difficult to say it with certainty, and this is largely at the domestic stage of the Rays.

The house full of Tampa, Tropicana Field, is in repair After undergoing significant damage from Hurricane Milton. The Rays are therefore playing this season at Steinbrenner Field, which is, by coincidence, the Yankees spring home. It is also the usual terrain for the Tampa Tarpons, Affilié Single-A of New York.
It is not an MLB stadium. And he does not have a MLB fault post which would extend considerably higher than that on the left sliding line. Even if the judge looked like a home run during the reproduction of the diffusion, there was no final angle at the stage – at least not a single definitive enough to force those responsible for replay to overthrow the call.
The call ultimately had no impact on the result of the game. But if the judge gets involved in a narrow race for the Crown of Home Run on the section, do not expect the Yankees fans to forget this one.
