Major League Baseball launched its new replay era Monday, when Toronto Blue Jays
manager John Gibbons unsuccessfully challenged a close play at first base in the
sixth inning of his team's game with the Minnesota Twins.
First-base
umpire Fieldin Culbreth signaled safe, and Gibbons immediately popped out of the
dugout and informed Culbreth he wanted to challenge the call.
Before the
game, Gibbons said he was curious about the system but not necessarily eager to
be the first manager to challenge a call.
