    Anyone else have a homerun replayed by umpires to see if it was fair or foul?

    I hit homerun down the third base line last night with Mauer and they said homerun and then wait a minute... the umpires got together and talked for a few seconds and then went to the booth for a replay review. Came back and said foul ball. Did not end up well for me but one of the coolest moments I have seen in sports gaming!

    Yes, twice this year.

    It's very well done, IMO.

      I had one in 11. Hit it in Tampa. They said no home run, went to replay, and called it good. I looked at the replay myself: they were right the first time, it was foul.

          I had one in my RTTS where it was called a HR, they reviewed it and it stood as a HR even though the ball clearly was foul. Not gonna argue I guess, got a HR out of the deal, but it was done incorrectly.

            I've had a couple, but one time I hit a foul ball that was originally called foul, but booth review turned it into a HR.

              I caught myself yelling at the tv demanding a review last night when Berkman hit one in the top of the 8th in a 1-1 game. The ball appeared to be foul and I waited for the umps to huddle and they never did. I was not a happy camper, went into replay and it was about 2 feet foul.

              Then to make matters worse in the bottom of the 9th Phillips and Cozart were on third and second with two outs and i rip a shot back up the middle with Votto and it smashes Motte and bounces right to Freese and he throws me out to end the game.

              Just one of those games.

                Every time I get that review thing, after the scene finishes, it just plays again, and the scene just plays repeatedly over and over.

                    I had the Umps review one today if it was fair it was A-Rods 3,000th hit I was screaming at my T.V ... but it turned out to be foul and on the next pitch I struck out.

                      Two.

                      One had it stay as called...foul.
                      The other had it changed to a HR.

                        Yea. They called an obvious foul ball a home run for the other team. Reviewed it, and fixed it. Much better than NCAA's where most reviews are a crapshoot.

                          i had a game where the opposing team hit a foul ball homerun that was foul, not reviewed and it counted as a homerun. i was so pissed. i hit a walk off homerun in the ninth though, so it was all good in the end.

                              do they review hrs if they hit the top of the wall, or maybe bounce back onto the field after hitting the wall??

                              or in the game do they just review the fair/foul hrs??
