Overturned call at plate costs Padres a night after Rangers

A play at home plate in a game between the San Diego Padres and San Francisco Giants was overturned on review Wednesday night, the second straight day a disputed review had a significant impact on the outcome of a game.

In the fifth inning at Oracle Park, Blake Sabol of the Giants appeared to be thrown out sliding into home by a strong throw by Padres outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. on Joc Pederson's two-out single to right.

Sabol was initially ruled out, but the call was challenged by San Francisco and changed following a lengthy review when umpires cited San Diego catcher Gary Sanchez for blocking the plate.
