Yes he did.
What happens to a coach when he goes out and argues a video replay?

The problem is that no rule, no matter how it's written or interpreted, can get around the fact that the runner has to be in fair territory to step on first base.

There is some truth to this.

 

If Strasburg does finish it out, it would be a hell of a moment for a guy who was famously shut down during a pennant race and has only thrown two complete games in his career. The last time he threw a pitch in the ninth inning was Aug. 30, 2017.
