I'd do it for balls/strikes, everything


No.. Balls/strikes need to stay the way it is. I understand umpires make some horrible damn calls behind the plate, but the game is long enough as it is. Focus on the close plays in the field and fair/foul/Homerun calls.

They should also try to find a way to cut down on the amount of time it takes between pitches. Watching Nomar Garciaparra take 3 balls, foul off 6 pitches, and step out of the box every time and do his damn glove thing for 15-20 seconds was annoying as frick!

NFL- make a safety 5 points.. One of the most difficult things to do in football and you only get 2 points?

I dont think it would take any longer to call balls/striks. They have the thing on mlb network that shows the strike zone. Why not have that in the booth and call the strikes from there. Would eliminate all the working the ump, and different umps with different strike zones, etc. Umps should be there to enforce the rules, not put their personal signature on every game.
