Default Re: Are baseball umpires getting help from the booth?

In a Mets/Phillies game in NY, the umps initially ruled a homerun by Wright to be in play. He wound up on third. The scoreboard operator played a replay of the hit, which showed that it should have been a homerun. The umps then overturned the call.... Charlie Manuel was not happy, to say the least.

It's bad that replay is actually used in some situations, favoring the hometeam. It's going to take a screwed up playoff game for the owners/players to decide a new policy.
