this playoffs definitely had some crazy calls! remember when they picked off cliff lee in that first game off second, and called him safe. LOL that was so obvious. And i believe they also called yorvit out at third when he was clearly safe as well, that same game. The yankees foul ball one was the most blatant, as it even looked like the ball grazed off the tip of the yankee outfielder, and STILL hit fair. he was right there, and i don't know how you can miss that kind of call without being a professional without having some kind of intention.

I dont like the idea of expanding replay I think it takes alot away from the game, but not as much as when umps can not make the proper calls which directly effect the outcome which has happened numerous already this postseason. They need to find some guys who can get the job done, put 10 umps out there if you need to.

First give each team one challenge that can only be used from the 7th inning on for any call except balls/strikes, if they use it and they are correct they get one additional challenge. Second, game goes into extras then like in the NFL or college football the video crew can call down to have a play challenged. Third, like basketball and the NFL have a time clock, a pitcher has 20 seconds when he gets the ball back from the catcher to start his next pitch and no batter can leave the batter box in between pitches to fix his batting gloves, shinguard, etc.. Fourth a catcher can only go out and talk to the same pitcher once/inning, if a new pitcher comes in you get one time with him as well to go out and talk to him.

Just a few of the changes I would like to see for MLB.
