Yoan Moncada initially ruled safe after missing home plate; call triggers two challenge requests

Chicago White Sox runner Yoan Moncada missed home plate and was called out in a game against the Milwaukee Brewers on Saturday after a long video review in which each team asked for a challenge.

The play happened in the top of the fifth inning with the bases loaded and the Sox trailing 4-0. With Moncada on third base, second baseman Leury Garcia hit a dribbler in front of the plate which Brewers starter Corbin Burnes grabbed and flicked towards home for the force out. He missed his catcher with the throw just as Moncada crossed the plate -- though he clearly stepped over it.
