Key replay reversal still major topic with A’s, Astros
The hot topic around the Coliseum on Saturday was still the play at the plate 12 hours earlier - Ramón Laureano initially called out, then safe after a replay review.
The run tied the game in the ninth and the A’s went on to win in the 10th inning on Matt Olson’s homer.

I have no idea what they saw there. Everybody around here thinks they made the wrong call. ... Pretty tired of getting screwed over by reviews.
