This is a day late but we just reached the one year anniversary. A crushing loss that sent the season into the shitter.

:hdn:

Gad, that was awful. Not only Meals' call but the others shown in that clip.

Bring on instant replay in MLB. It's worth it "to get it right."

I agree. Scoring plays of any kind should be subject to a video review. It's pretty simple. Why the MLB resist's implementing at least this much is really confusing.

Oh yeah, Screw You Jerry!!

baseball is the sport that the rules have the least latitude for interpretation, but yet missed calls occur way more often.

safe or out.
ball or strike. nobody really calls the actual rulebook strike zone. even with that, they dont even call their own arbitrary made up strikezone consistently.
fair or foul
these account for 98% of calls, yet these guys are either so sedentary, lulled to sleep because of the drone of games, overheated in the hot weather, or biased to miss so many calls.

dont get me started. ok i already am, but ..........
i think this leads to some of the offensive explosions we periodically see when the ump squeezes the strikezone to be mid thigh as the bottom and upper belt buckle for top of zone.
