It'll progress. Pretty soon, almost everything in baseball will be able to be disputed. What I honestly believe the game could come to: NFL - QB is hit as he's throwing, was it a forward pass or a fumble? MLB - Pitcher throws a slider, but it doesn't slide. Can I get a repitch? I don't agree with instant replay, at all. Part of the game is the human error factor (even if it it is INSANELY small...umps almost always make the right call). Don't take that away from the game...

Worth disputing, but they should have just gone to it right away instead of trying to resume play. Only 2 minutes so it wasn’t that bad.
