The Mets lost a challenge on a rule that left most of the team confused during the third inning of Friday night 's game against the Dodgers .

Michael Conforto was ultimately ruled safe because the ball was first touched before being caught.

According to official MLB rules, a runner is permitted to tag up to the next base once the ball is touched by a fielder.

Former MLB umpire Brian Gorman then joined the broadcast to clear up the play.
