Well, I can't believe that. There's no noise, there's no hot spot. The batsman's not going

to review that. I just can't believe that. There's just a staggering decision to show

that their technology is shown clearly. There was enough evidence to overturn a mistake.

There was no hot spot, there was no noise. So you just expect that to give it not out.

Good morning and welcome to episode 259 of Effectively Wild, the Daily Podcast from Baseball

Perspectus. I am Ben Lindbergh, joined by Sam Miller and some congratulations are in

order. I guess. Well, yeah, everybody's got a dream. Yeah. My dream was pretty modest.

Yeah, you just wanted Aira to make a played appearance or, or be in a box score for some

yeah, I do. Oh, yeah. It's, it's significant, Ben. I'm sorry to hear that. That was the

I was in suspense the whole, the whole flight. And that's why the plane crashed into a building.

Yes. Just they were just, they were just taxiing along on the runway and all of a sudden
