These kind of situations are getting more and more common. MLB has to take some action. There have been many controversial calls by the umpires this season.

You could cut and paste this comment into any of the last dozen, or so, decades and it would always seem topical.

Decades ago we didn't have instant replay challenges. Now we do. MLB has to expand this to every possible play.

Yeah I agree. And it wouldn't hurt even the pace of play I think, because either you watch the instant replay or you watch a manager get mad and get tossed for a couple of minutes. Just set some limits on the amount of reviews like they have now.
