Orioles push for foul-pole tech after Alonso call stands
TL;DR
Pete Alonso’s seventh-inning drive was ruled foul and upheld on review, costing Baltimore a game they led. The Orioles criticized MLB’s tech and pressed for foul-pole verification using laser or vertical cameras (and AI ball-tracking) to overturn calls. Alonso and manager Craig Albernaz cited limited camera angles for this play and urged 2026-era upgrades, noting the two-angle overturn rule and questioning why cost prevents adoption as the Yankees won 5-3.
