    Blown call by the umpire in today's game decides the game. Now what do you think about baseball instituting a instant replay review?

    Another missed call in the Giants/Cardinals game, would take less than 2 minutes to reverse the call.

    Umps need to be held accountable. The one missed last night and tonight the umps were staring right at it. No excuse that they missed them.

    Who gives a penetrate is what I say...so they blew a call so what!

    If the ump calls strike 3 a ball and walks the guy then next dude hits a walkoff does anyone bitch...penetrate no...its a judgement call on every play and it aint your or my judgement, if the ump says its a strike ITS A STRIKE, if he says its a ball ITS A BALL, if he calls you safe you're SAFE and if he calls you out well guess what YOU'RE OUT!

    So unless the refs are rigging the games everything will balance out, good calls/bad calls are just part of sports, sure bitch and whine about em but dont turn this into a 5 minute commercial break after every play to confirm the call...bc it fuckin sucks!

    The technology is available to get all the umpires off the field, even on balls and strikes. Everyone would just look at the scoreboards as all the calls would be made from the booth which would not even need to be on site.
