Either the player clearly missed the plate or he touched it. No umpire worth his position would uphold a missed base appeal on a runner that "might" have missed the plate.

A toe touching the black? To me, he may as well have placed his size 9 right in the freaking middle of the plate.

So, what I think you're saying is, if you need slow motion replay on a 72" HD screen to see he missed it, then he really didn't miss it.
