It's well past time for replay in baseball (1 Viewer)

Just watched the Pirates lose in the bottom of the 19th because the umpire absolutely blew the call. Flat out blown call to end the game. What's the point of playing when the umpires can make such terrible mistakes? If tennis can have computers call balls in and out, surely baseball isn't above the technology.

It's not like they can't afford to pay an umpire to sit in the booth and review all calls, so that should the managers argue a call, you can immediately go to the guy in the booth and he'll tell them the correct call. Would take 30 seconds. Not that hard.

Frank Drebin wouldn't have missed that call. I'd be sick to my stomach were I a Pirates fan.

Add in the fact that it was against the Braves and it's a double stomach punch.

As if most of us needed another reason not to watch.

It'd probably be nice for the sport, but many have long left it.
