Weso...We playing tonight or what? (Continued #3)

[Coredor]

They need to go back to he old rules. If darnaud didn’t have o stand off he play o receive the ball that isn’t close.

 

[Enscheff]

Has anyone seen this angle that shows he touched the plate? Or has it been stuck with the Roswell files?

Mlb network doesn't even show the replay on the highlights. Joke network

If the call just stood like turner says, then I'm not as upset. ESPN said the call was upheld

This pretty much confirms what DOB said earlier

The replay team in NY doesn't need to be watching the game or know what the umpire called. They should rule based on how they see it instead of already knowing how the umpire called the play.

How would that work? You can clearly see what the ump called when watching the replay.

My first reaction when watching live was “why the **** did the umpire move directly behind d’Arnaud where he couldn’t see the tag?”

 

[Coredor]

They need people in the replay room who have no ties to MLB umpires. Heck they don’t even need on the failed experience. Hire for people with an independent mentality. Either that or go the other way and treat it like soccer VAR where the umpire is given the angles and can review his own call. That way he’s on the hook if he blows it a second time rather than getting bailed out by New York.

Shane Greene was at the game tonight. Seriously. I wonder if he’s about to sign?

Get some ex-players in there. I'm sure there are some players who would love to tell umpires they were wrong. If the umpires are more interested in protecting their buddies than getting a call right, that's a problem. This isn't just an issue of getting the call right. This is an integrity of the game issue. Can't have umpires in replay more interested in protecting their friends. Also, MLB has to start holding the umpires accountable for their bad calls. I recall refs in the NFL, NCAA, and NBA getting punished for horrible calls. Anyone recall something like that in MLB? I can't. If they did so, maybe Angel Hernandez, CB Bucknor, and Doug Eddings would be punished. But they can continue to be bad at their jobs and don't have to have any repercussions from it.
