Instant replay to debut for baseball today
The Texas Rangers’ series that begins in Anaheim tonight will be one of the first three Major League Baseball games to start using instant replay to review home-run calls.
The Associated Press has this story on the Network Operations Center room (shown at right) that Major League Baseball will use to make video available to umpires.
I’m still on the fence — so to speak — about the need for instant replay in Major League Baseball. I like when decisions are made quickly by umpires (and isn’t it part of the fun to argue “bad calls”), but at the same time I would like to make sure the call is right, especially on critical home runs. We’ll see how well this works.
What do you think?
