They have taken away one of the great intangibles of the game, one which made baseball far less sterile and far more interesting than any other sport.

It's a huge momentum buster and downright pansy in nature.

Sterile? I doubt you can sterilize BB by using a tool which verifies or reverses a questionable call.

As we witnessed in the NFL, professional sports will be more and more politicized. The Superbowl was a rigged game. I don’t believe you can rule out rigging of any sport by way of technology, but these tools help to ensure a fairer game.

We’ve all witnessed juiced games. We’ve all watched game in which the umps were clearly in favor of a particular team.

I want the games to decided by the players performance and not by shady umpires.
