Mr. Booth, Like a good umpire you will have to learn to ignore the comments and name calling here. If you are called 'ridiculous' or 'stupid' etc. etc you can consider it a badge of honor. Many of these gentlemen are in some other baseball world.
Of course, IR will be used in baseball...someday. and it will be properly limited. But yesterday's situation is not a case-in-point. It is not clear that they got it right at all. The is no single still frame which shows the ball in touch with the bag. In fact, there is some dirt kick up in one that suggests maybe Marsh was right...even tho he was 'distracted'. LOL.
But even had the TV showed the ball fair, there is no way to 'fairly and reasonably' reconstruct the situation which might have been .
