Commissioner Bud Selig says the sports new replay system is working well despite
a few problems during its first two weeks. While baseball began video review
late in the 2008 season, it was limited to potential home runs and boundary
calls. The new system that began March 30 vastly expands the types of plays that
managers and umpires can ask to be reviewed at a replay centre in New York.
Calls by umpires on the field have been confirmed in 33 of 89 challenges through
Monday and overturned in 30. For 25 others, calls stood because of a lack of
"clear and convincing" evidence. In one instance, umpires asked for a video
review to check the balls-strike count. Selig called the rollout "remarkable"
but wouldnt say whether MLB would make any adjustments during this initial
season. "Weve had really very little controversy overall," Selig said Tuesday at
the MLB Diversity Business Summit. "Everything in life will have a little glitch
here and there where you do something new. And are our guys on top of it? You
bet. But Im saying to you again, youll hear about the one or two controversies,
but look at all the calls that have been overturned." Umpires review challenged
calls in a room filled with computers, screens and technicians at the offices of
Major League Baseball Advanced Media. "Technology takes a while to work," MLBAM
chief executive officer Bob Bowman said. "I dont know if you ever bought a new
car. You dont know how all that stuff woorks right away.

know weve arrived because ESPN is already criticizing us. And it must be great
to be perfect the way ESPN is." ESPN spokesman Josh Krulewitz declined comment.
Boston manager John Farrell was ejected after a call was overturned during
Sundays game against the Yankees, which gave New York an additional run in a
game it went on to win 3-2. Francisco Cervelli originally was called out at
first for an inning-ending double play, but he was ruled safe on the review --
allowing Brian McCann to score from first. A day earlier, MLB admitted it
incorrectly failed to overturn a call that was in favour of the Yankees and said
it was because the replay room in New York did not immediately have access to
some of the camera angles from broadcasts that showed Boston shortstop
Xander Bogaerts tagged Dean Anna while the runners right foot briefly came off
second base. "I dont expect any system to be perfect. So its no different than
before instant replay," Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner said. "Youre going to get
calls that go your way, and youre probably going to get some that dont. And no
system is perfect, but its a vast improvement over what we had." Chicago Cubs
owner Tom Ricketts had a more parochial -- and playful -- view. "Were two and
two in challenges, so its clear to us the replay system only works about half
the time," he said.
