And if it was ruled fair, then what?

Changing fair to foul will not be difficult. Changing foul to fair (except over the fence) will be a mess... so if they go to replay on this kind of call, umpires will be encouraged to call anything close fair.

Whole lot simpler and cheaper to shun the monitor to make the call in the first place. |

Makes sense, although I would think that going from foul to fair, MLB will probably make it an automatic ground rule double.

Critical "who knocked the ball out of bounds call" in Celtics-Heat game just reviewed with 41 seconds left in game. It took less than a minute to review. No big deal, Heat crowd barely made a sound when the initial call was reversed, Celtics get the ball. Probably saw it on arena monitors where replay was clear. Celtics win by 4. Big call, big correction aided by replay.

That ball was conclusively off the Heat player's hand.

The game was fine 75, 50 and 25 years ago and it is still fine now. The umpiring and playing have gotten better over time.
Most of this is coming from the media, who have convinced the fans that something just has to be done. IR in football is a joke. Review everything or review nothing. I hate it in the NFL, I hate it in basketball ("Lets go to the monitor to see if the toe was on the three point line" ![]() The umpires better tell them to shove it. |
