Aw, Shuck: Replay overturns Angels homer

Halos outfielder loses first career blast on second look by umpires

ANAHEIM -- With an 0-1 count in the bottom of the second in Wednesday's 8-6, 10-inning loss to the Cubs, Angels left fielder J.B. Shuck thought he hit his first Major League home run.

Shuck hit a ball down the right-field line, and although it was initially ruled a home run, it was later ruled a foul ball by replay. 

Shuck's foul ball was the second time an Angels player has had a home run overturned at Angel Stadium. Peter Bourjos had a home run overturned on Sept. 28, 2010, in a game against Oakland.

Shuck eventually grounded out to shortstop to end the at-bat and finished 1-for-3 with an RBI.
