Should there be instant replay in baseball?

[tennis_dog]

a couple people and i were having this discussion today, and itw as kinda split.....i said only on the poles or the sides of the cornerfields to judge if homeruns are fair or foul....

your thoughts?

 

[Butt Rubber]

yes, it'll be good to help measure stolen bases and outfield dives

 

[Tito]

Make the game even longer. Why not?

 

[yak pac fatal]

maybe only in the playoffs

No it will make the game look more bordom then what it is already. imagine having umpire stop the game and go to watch some replay. audience will get bored waiting. actually it dont matter if you think about it. either way its boring, it will just make you little more bored.

Refferies/umpires should not be in position to decide the winner of the game. thats basically the buttom line. you need to put refferies/umpires as far as you can and not to give them right to decide your games outcome. let it be natural game with the flow and shit. let it happen. you dont want the next day talking about how this umpire missed the call and the team lost because of that when your team shouldnt have been in that position for the umpire to make that call in the first place. in football and basketball that shit is happening. people blaiming refferies and shit when their teams are the ones to be blaimed for putting themselves in that situation. critisize your own team, dont critisize refferie. refferie will get his act straight but you dont bother him.

Hope you understand my point and hopefully agree with me.

yea i understand what your saying but sometimes the call can change the entire game

 

[tennis_dog]

i dunno what the hell you're saying....the player gets to decide if he;s out?

You can see if a ball was fair or foul, or uh, see if a guy really made tha catch.

I don't really think it would go with baseball though, so who knows.

 

[RaDeK]

it would be good for the game, however it shouldnt be used excessively

 

[SiGh]

they should, in the play offs. :thumb:

 

[AmerikazMost]

no..if the refs all get together, they usually get it right

 

[tennis_dog]

im just saying on the cornerfields...there's alotta foul balls that come really close, and people are left wondering what would have been....nothing for balls and strikes....the game is stopped anyways when there's a call like that, to discuss the HR, why not just pull out a camera and actually get it right....

i think it should be like football, couple of challengers awarded to the manager, and maybe from the 7th inning on have close plays automatically challenged

the umps in baseball are some of the worst officials in sports
