Replay in Baseball

After last nights amazing baseball game and Colorado Rockies win, I think it's time to have replay in baseball.

What other sport doesn't have replay. Baseball has to be the only one. There's not much you can do in golf with replay besides pointing out where a ball might have landed, but that's a little strategy of the game. Take a drop if you can't find the ball.

Hockey, basketball, football. Not sure about soccer, but I'm not sure why they would need it either. Either the ball crossed the goal line or it didn't. Take that back. Soccer should use it if they don't have it already.

Matt Holliday didn't score last night. He made a good attempt on a sac-fly, but the catcher for the Padres was blocking the plate - and doing a good job at it.

Game 163 should prove that baseball at least needs a little replay. Garret Atkins homer, I wanna say in the fourth inning, wasn't a double. He got robbed.

Owners have to figure something out. I know there going to wanna take a dollars-and-sense approach to the installment of replay, but what would be the adverse reactions.

I've heard that it would extend the game. Isn't that the beauty of baseball? You have to love the fact that you can actually go to a game and talk to the person next to you (bonding time) and not have to worry about what you might have missed. It's a slow, methodical game at times on purpose.

If you have the technology why not use it. If you have a cell phone and you need to make an important call, would you use it or say that it would ruin the peace and quiet of peace and quiet?
