MLB Instant Replay Review S-30|31: Barber, Campos (S-2|1)

Instant replay affirmed 1B Umpire Sean Barber's safe call in the top of the 6th inning and 1B Umpire Angel Campos' out call in the top of the 9th inning of the Marlins-Tigers game. In the 6th, with one out and one on, Tigers batter Jake Marisnick swung at and missed a 2-1 pitch from Tigers pitcher Joe Nathan; after catching the pitch, catcher Bryan Holaday threw to first baseman Miguel Cabrera as Marlins baserunner R1 Adeiny Hechavarria arrived at first base. Upon instant replay review as the result of a challenge by Tigers Manager Brad Ausmus, 1B Umpire Barber's ruling that Cabrera did not tag Hechavarria prior to Hechavarria's foot retouching first base was confirmed, the call was correct. At the time of the instant replay review, the Marlins were leading, 4-2.

In the 9th, with none out and one on, Tigers pitcher Blaine Hardy threw to first baseman Jordan Lennerton as Marlins baserunner R1 Derek Dietrich dove back into first base. Upon instant replay review as the result of an inquiry by Marlins Manager Mike Redmond and initiation by crew chief Joe West, 1B Umpire Campos' ruling that Lennerton successfully tagged Dietrich prior to Dietrich's hand touching first base (runner tagged while off of his base) was affirmed, the call was correct. At the time of the instant replay review, the Marlins were leading, 4-2. The Marlins ultimately won the contest, 4-2.
