ABS controversy in Cincinnati: Bucknor’s six overturned calls in chaotic Reds-Sox game

Umpire CB Bucknor’s day at Great American Ball Park drew attention as MLB’s Automated Ball-Strike System overturned six of eight challenged calls in Cincinnati, including two back-to-back strikes against Red Sox rookie Ryan Watson after Eugenio Suarez’s challenges. Bucknor also ejected Boston manager Alex Cora following a heated, non-reviewable check-swing call by Trevor Story, during a game the Reds won 6-5 in 11 innings after Dane Myers’ walk-off. Boston had tied it in the ninth on Wilyer Abreu’s homer. The affair underscored the ongoing debate over ABS and umpiring in baseball.

The Cincinnati Reds are interested in signing Kyle Schwarber, a top power hitter coming off a 56-homer season, to bolster their offense, but his high salary demands could challenge their budget.
