Looking into the past?

As of right now, we are in full swing of the MLB playoffs, a showing of the greatest baseball teams in a tense 7 game series. But whats being focused in upon is not the baseball. Its the umpires (referee or baseball). Day after day it seems as if the only thing being debated is if the correct decision is made in game.

Saturday night marked one of  the craziest night in MLB World Series baseball.  And the call was wrong...But how on such a grand scale with millions of fans across the country watching could the call be wrong? Instant replay comes into question due to the fact that it still isn't used in modern sports.

"So now the outcome of the game is not being influenced by a call that could have been corrected", says Matt Kawahara of the Sacramento Bee. I agree with Kawahara completely because with the introduction of replay, sports of all kind would become more correct so that a game isnt decided on a fluke of a decision.
