So here's what I think:
At this point we need instant replay in baseball because quite honestly viewers at home could be doing a better job than the actual umps.
-Have a fifth umpire that sits up in the booth
-When a review comes in, no need to stop play and huddle around a TV then talk about it, just have the fifth ump make the call and move on, I think the entire process wouldn't need to take more than 15 seconds
-Reviewable plays: Home runs, tags on all bases, catches in the outfield, and tagging up (though I don't think it would come up often)
-I don't think balls and strikes should be reviewable.

Agreed.

ReplyDelete1 out. Runner on first. Line drive to the 1B, he catches it on the fly and steps on 1st base, double play, inning over. Upon review the ball short-hopped. If called on the field, maybe he turns 2 anyways. What happens?
