Even if true the rule requires the fielder to control the ball after the the tag
long enough to prove control. This did not happen here. The correct call based upon the rule book is "safe."

I’d argue that there was sufficient evidence that he had control of the ball

Where’s the definition of how long they need it after the tag? He has the ball

So where’s the definitive ruling that says that it is definitively right?

What’s definitive is the people that know the rules as written “confirmed”

Again, you admit yourself he had the ball after the tag. That’s been my argument

I don’t see the note from the umps, but it doesn’t say the word “immediate”
