Yes, Oli was annoyed that it seemed like the ump was talked into his decision by Harris. That said, the call was confirmed on the field, as opposed to there not being enough evidence to overturn. This means that the call would have been overturned if the ruling was no HBP. In that sense, Oli's reaction made no sense. Wouldn't be surprised if he didn't understand the rule.ghostrunner wrote: ↑July 13 26, 10:05 amWasn’t some of Oli’s problem the ump not formally calling it a HBP? Which would be the fallback if the review was indecisive. To me it’s unclear that it hits him in any of the video I’ve seen. Not sure if what the review teams have access to re: photos, but that would seem time consuming. Anyway, I get the complaint

I still think that’s worth a loud objection regardless of the review. Ideally it should happen when the non-call call happens, but the review is the first priority.

I think Oli's big problem was he did not call it a HBP until the batter was like hey, that hit me. Then he was like ok take your base. If the ump didn't see it; the Braves should have challenged it.
