Royce is lucky he didn’t get a broken ankle there to be honest. Not trying to pick on the already maligned guy, but that was poor positioning 

There was nothing wrong with his positioning, the runner had space, he just didn't get his foot all the way over.  The bashing of Lewis while some is deserved is getting over the top.

If a play is being made on the obstructed runner, he "shall be awarded at least one base beyond the base he had last legally touched before the obstruction."

Stupid rule. So he should get at least one base, yeah what the hell go ahead and give him two! Let him go around to first!

Houdini act despite the shenanigans. The lead is lost but the game doesn't have to be 

Especially considering they’re at the top of the order!

On reply he clearly had base to slide into. Plus if it is an unreviewable call, why did the ump change his mind after review with the other umps?

This is a valid point. The umpire made the call and according to rule it should not be reviewed.

I wasn’t trying to bash him, you’re right. It just looked to be in a dangerous spot but the angle, I guess he couldn’t do much else

It's never called.... I could maybe get onboard if it was close... It wasn't , the tag was applied well before touching the base., I'm not sure after replays there was obstruction, what's Lewis supposed to do, not get in position to apply the tag.... 

It's not like Royce's foot led to the out.  Shouldn't have even mattered in that case.

Horrible call. ABS on all pitches!

These umps are just rubbing salt in the wound at this point.

Lewis had his foot where it should not have been. I watched the reply several times.

Not should have been by rule or by not trying to get a broken ankle? I’ve never been a major leaguer but I was always told it shouldn’t be where his was if you can avoid it
