Instant Replay In Baseball???

Did we ever think that this question would come upon us for America’s pastime the great game of baseball. I know that I certainly didn’t. When the Colorado Rockies “defeated” the San Diego Padres last earlier this week in a one game playoff to decide who would make the playoffs there was a questionable call at home plate. That questionable call was did he actually touch home plate. When looking at the replay I absolutely did not think he touched home plate and was sure that if the umpires were able to use instant replay they would have changed their mind. This does not mean that I am for using the instant replay because I am actually against using it in the MLB. It should not be used for the simple reason that baseball is a bang-bang type of sport and the umpire can see everything and he normally makes the right call. Now football is different because sometimes the referee can’t see everything like a ball touching the ground on a catch because they have less time to prepare for what it is going to happen. Where in baseball you have lots of time to prepare yourself for plays at the plate and to make sure you get the best view. I also think that it would destroy the tradition of the sport basically because it is America’s pastime, and for the most part it has been pretty much the same since it was created. So in inclusion I think that we should not use instant replay in baseball.
