I just went and looked at the TV coverage on MLB.com.Patrick_S said:They might as well scrap instant replay since umpires either can't make, or are unwilling to make unpopular reversals when they have clear evidence to reverse a call.That was clearly fan interference in today's Tigers game. The fan touched the ball in the field of play interfering with a play.
Looked like interference to me.
But this is one of the things I have said about replay. Like umpires, replay isn't perfect either. While I don't doubt that replay will likely account for more accurate calls...there are going to be times when it is inconclusive and even times when it will be responsible for wrong calls being made. And it will delay the game...
