Replays indicate Ramos stayed true to his natural motion in delivering his pitches and did not commit a balk, the call was correct. In the bottom of the 3rd, with one out and one on, Rangers batter Odor took a 0-2 fastball from Blue Jays pitcher Aaron Sanchez for a called first ball. Replays indicate the pitch was located over the inner edge of home plate and thigh high (px 0.681, pz 1.977 [sz_bot 1.340 / MOE 1.423]), the call was incorrect.

Replays indicate Bautista's slide violated the bona fide slide rule concerning interference at second base, prompting a bench-clearing incident and an automatic double play, the call was irrecusable. In the bottom of the 8th, with none out and none on, Rangers batter Fielder took a first-pitch fastball for a hit-by-pitch. Replays indicate the pitch was located inside and struck fielder on the backside, the call was irrecusable. At the time of the Leiper and Gibbons ejections, the Blue Jays were leading, 1-0.
