No, Because its what makes the game fun to talk abpout. It gets the media started, rumors, and opinions will start to spread like a plague. If it happend that would make history like the call last year in the NLCS when I think A.J. Pierzynski was batting and he got first base when the catcher dropped the strike three pitch. Fans and the broadcasters were replaying the clip from every camera veiw. I thought that was a great example of a variable that can alter a game. So no the game is fun the way it is bad calls always happen but its what makes it exciting. Whats the Call going to be STRIKE 3 YOU"RE OUT.

no because then there will be a challenge play about every single game lots at the plate first and 2 lots for steals first to 2 and 2 to 3 but lots seeing if a man was out for a double or 3 and strikes and balls lots for the phills

No way! Just because we have the technology to do it, doesn't mean it's a good idea. Teams have just as many calls go for them as they do against them. That's why they play a 162 game schedule and have playoff series instead of playing single elimination.

no. baseball is the only real sport to not have replay, and it's for a reason. to implement replay in baseball would take the human element out, and that's part of what makes baseball the greatest friggin sport in the world. sure, umps blow a call here and there, but for the most part, they even out.

If you mean instant replay , No. Managers challenge umpires decisions all the time now (except for calling balls and strikes, they can't do that). They can and do come out and question the umpires decisions on close plays when they think the umpire is wrong.

No because then there would have to be replays and I am totally against that.Its is just how baseball is.Every team suffers because of a bad call but that team will eventually have its turn when they gain because of a bad call so it all works out and its all just how the game works.

You can do that; it's called appealing the play. It is usuallly overturned, but it is possible to request that the umpires come together and discuss it.

NO, because it isnt the way of baseball. Football shouldnt even down that.

Tradionalist here...No way. That is the breaks, you take the game as it is. Flaws and all. Even questec ticked me off.

No that would be so stupid. It would ruin the game.
