I've seen about fifteen replays of the play, regular and slow motion. McKenry got Lugo on the inner leg. The ball was in the mitt, and the mitt touched Lugo's inner right leg just above the kneecap, when Lugo was about two or three feet from the plate yet. Even the Braves' announcers couldn't believe the play was called safe.
Blown call. Not a malicious blown call, but a blown call nevertheless.
