MLB Exploring Instant Replay

Mr. Met · 05-23-2008, 08:37 PM

It looks like the MLB may be exploring the possibility of instant replay. It will be interesting to see if this becomes reality.

In the past, I was never excited about the idea, but after seeing so many horrible calls over the past few seasons, I am warming up to the idea, under the right circumstances.

Wouldn't the ideal solution be to make the official scorer the replay guy? He has to sit and watch the entire game anyway, and half the time doesn't make a decision until he's seen a play a few times. They are hometown guys and all, but I doubt they would cheat on obvious call like the ones we've seen the last week or so...

Please don't let this happen.

Great so when pitchers like Traschel pitch games will be another 30 mins longer. As they weren't boring enough.
