Baseball is one of the only sports I can think of that one offical, home plate umpire, can decide the outcome of the game before it begins. You can't convince me with the hundreds of millions of dollars at stake that many are not payed off. Replay on every pitch would eliminate that. It would only take 2 seconds.
How about strike zone. It was 8 inches outside and he called it a strike but if the umpire is consistent then it is OK. BS... Isn't there rules that define the strike zone? Why even have a plate to pitch over if the umpire can decied what is a strike or not?
