Its the 21st century folks.
It seems pretty silly for a major league sport (baseball is the last major sport not to use replay) to continue allowing plays/calls to stand that are shown to be 100% incorrect by readily available technology. This is a multi billion dollar business we are talking about, not juniors little league game.
Every poll I've seen on the subject has players, coaches, fans, team officials and yes even major league umpires overwhelmingly for the instant replay of home run and fan interference calls..
