Summary

Here we go again with a major league sport bashing their own system because they don't like it. All the complaining and moaning about the MLB baseball replay being used, not being used, liking it, hating it. Nothing is perfect. Not the players, not the umpires and not the replay system. So if you're going to call it out and rip it because you don't like it, you better be prepared for the alternative. You cannot have it both ways. I, for one, say we go back to no replays and let players be players and umpires be umpires. What do you think? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
