MLB changes a call that gives Cleveland Guardians' Jose Ramirez another playoff hit and RBI.
in Game 1 of the ALDS. The first run of the game was thanks to none other than Jose Ramirez who put the ball in play down the third base line which got past Zach McKinstry.
However, the play's original scoring was an error, and while Cleveland still took the lead, Ramirez wasn't credited with the RBI. The play was scored that Ramirez reached base on a fielder's choice and then an error, which meant he technically started the game 0-1 from the plate. However, after the game was finished, the Guardians petitioned MLB to review the play and change it to a hit for Ramirez.B1 Jose Ramirez now reaches on a double, instead of reaching on a fielders choice and an error. As a result, Ramirez gets credit for a run batted in, and pitcher Tyler Holton is now charged with one additional earned run.
This also slightly raised Ramirez's career playoff batting average. Before, he was hitting .236 in the postseason, but now that's been raised to .244.
