Id o, i think their should be 2 unpires at home plate because some calls aren't balls or strikes, and i think their should be an umpire at the outer fields.

Yes i totally agree with you... and i think their should be 4 strikes for an out. and im not trying to coby football (american) but their should be a challange flag to argue base stealing and stuff. Or a review.

I like the line umpires. It would be good on those judgement call home runs. Two behind would be a horrible idea because it just makes no sense. They aren't that many missed calls that affect the outcome of a game. I don't think the batter should be able to run to first on a strike three passed ball. That's a dumb rule. I understand the reasoning but I think it's stupid.

I think MLB is fine. If you have 2 umpires, it's mass chaos trying to get a wild pitch from the backstop. Umpires on the outfield lines are good, especially trying to determine home run vs. fan interference like Ryan Howard's HR turned double last week, but I don't see it happening.

I agree that there should be two more umpires in the outfield to watch the lines like they do in the playoffs, but having two umps behind the catcher would give them tougher angles to watch a pitch. They'd be in each others way

What do you mean, "some calls aren't balls or strikes"? Those are the only 2 options.

Yes. Three foul balls and you are out. No more extra pitches after the second foul ball.
