This is the same thing. You cannot go back and change history arbitrary because you do not like the outcome. And if you have a commissioner do this once, we will have other situations there will be a cry for this. Galarraga pitched to another batter after this play. Do we just act like that did not happen? Even if they institute replay now, they are not going to do it in all situations and people will then cry for outcomes to be changed when the evidence shows there was a mistake.

And in the 1985 World Series that was supposed to be the first in the 9th inning of Game 6. If the Cards did not implode during Game 7 we would hardly remember this event.

Peace
