We've even heard from Don Denkinger, the author of one of the other most famous blown calls in baseball history, who said, "Maybe instant replay can clean things up. If a play is missed, it can be corrected. I didn't feel that way in '85, but I feel that way now."
But still there is resistance to the idea of expanding replay to get the plays right. The people most hurt by this stubborn foolishness aren't the players, though, nor the fans. No, the people who should really be up in arms to get replay put in place are the umpires.
Look, umpires have tough jobs. They do. They have to determine, about 250 times a game, whether or not an object moving at 90 mph (and not in a straight line, either), crossed on one side or the other of an imaginary line. They have to make judgement calls on the bases about events which took less than half a second to occur, and then bear the wrath of the players and coaches and fans when they get it wrong. (An often when they get it right, too.) Make no mistake, umpires have very difficult, stressful jobs.
