Red Sox's Trevor Story Disagrees With Controversial Check Swing Call

Red Sox shortstop Trevor Story voiced his strong disagreement with a controversial check swing call by umpire CB Bucknor during Saturday's loss to the Cincinnati Reds, a moment that sparked an on-field outburst.

During the eighth inning of Saturday's extra-inning loss to the Reds, Story argued that he did not swing on a 0-2 pitch, claiming the umpire should have consulted the first-base umpire before ruling him out.

Story expressed his frustration post-game, stating he does not feel like he swung and plans to keep his conversation with the umpire private. Manager Alex Cora was ejected during the incident while attempting to defend Story.
