Tigers say video shows HBP call was correct

DETROIT -- After further review, the Tigers decided Alex Gordon's hit-by-pitch was not worth reviewing.

It was a key play, having put the go-ahead run on base in the 10th inning of Sunday night's 2-1 loss to the Royals. It was a decision in question when a camera angle from the ESPN broadcast suggested Angel Nesbitt's first pitch might not have made contact with Gordon, who didn't seem to react until home plate umpire Jeff Kellogg ruled that it hit him.

It was a play that didn't get much reaction from the Tigers, either.
