2014 – Less than a week after the first successful protest in 28 years, the Rays file one of their own after today’s 5 – 4, extra innings loss to the Blue Jays. Rays manager Joe Maddon objects to a ruling by crew chief Bob Davidson in the 4th inning, who allows a video review on a pick-off play even though Blue Jays P Mark Buehrle has already stepped on the pitching rubber and the batter was in the batter’s box. The review is successful, giving the Jays a key out. The rule states that a play should no longer be reviewable at that point, although the final decision is left to the crew chief. Major League Baseball Vice-President Joe Torre agrees to hear the protest – a rare step in itself – but on August 26th, the protest will be denied as the umpires acted within the margin of discretion granted them.
