It didn’t take long for the ump show to take over in Game 1 of the World Series on Friday night.

Home plate umpire Carlos Torres didn’t make it through the first inning of the Fall Classic before an egregious call behind the dish.
With two on and two outs in the top of the first inning, Jazz Chisholm showed bunt on the first pitch out of Jack Flaherty’s hand, pulling the bat back before the pitch reached the batter’s box.
Despite being a few inches outside and a tad bit low, Torres called the offspeed pitch a strike, putting Chisholm down 0-1 in the count.
