Fans were left dazed and confused by a controversial call during Game 2 between the Orioles and Yankees in Baltimore, which ruled Pete Alonso's potential go-ahead home run a foul ball, even after an on-field review. Alonso crushed the ball into the left-field stands, and it clearly appeared to be to the right of the foul pole and should have been called fair.
Much to the home fans' surprise, the umpiring crew missed the call. The review failed to overturn the decision, ruling it a foul ball and leaving the home dugout and the Orioles fans perplexed. Ultimately, the game continued, and the visitors scored two runs in the eighth, took a 5-3 lead, and won.

"Yeah, MLB is rigging the game right in front of us," one fan commented.
