Why No Replay Review?

[JJ]

Here's my million-dollar idea: Instead of physical metal foul pole, use a laser instead. It would go up infinitely, so there would be no doubt about whether a shot went "over" the foul pole. If a ball even barely nicked it, the computer that it was tied into would indicate that the laser's continuous beam was interrupted, so the fair/foul for this one would be easy. It could be modified with a series of other lasers extending along the fenceline that, if interrupted, would indicate a fair ball if the ball passed through them - which would deal with the ball that "wraps around the foul pole".
Of course, there may be other problems - you'd probably have to put up a VERY high plexiglass wall along the top of the outfield fence so the fans couldn't toss a beer cup through the laser beam...
I'll give it more thought, send it to R & D, then present it to the fiscal dept for a feasibility study....and then I'll get back to you....
