You make the call
Rays postgame host Todd Kalas called it 'the worst call that has gone against the Rays in their 11-year history.'
Manager Joe Maddon said, pointedly, 'they got the call wrong.'
Third-base umpire Ted Barrett explained that Rays third baseman Willy Aybar was in A.J. Pierzynski's way, preventing him from continuing to third base, and that's why the White Sox catcher was awarded third despite being tagged out by shortstop Jason Bartlett.
But what we want to know is what you think about Doug Eddings' controversial call that set the table for the Rays' 6-5 loss Sunday in Chicago. Watch the video, then leave us your thoughts in the 'Comments' area below.
