Changed calls because of TV

[jont]

I agree that the major reason umpires now get together is because of tv and the increased coverage of sports highlights. It simply doesn't make sense to die with a call that can be changed when, if wrong, the call is going to be shown on sportscenter and the like for the next 24 hours. In addition, the mlb umpires have been under tighter control from the commissioner's office since 1999 when the american and national league control of umpires ended. One of the major concerns has been to "get the call right."
However, I disagree that instant replay will come to baseball anytime soon. The only way I could see that happening would be for the limited use of possibly a fair/foul homerun decision or spectator interference. And I think it would take a major foul up in a playoff or world series game for there ever to be enough support for instant replay.
