      So, do the NL fans not watch the World Series when the AL team is home...?

              The only sport where replay works as intended is tennis. Keep it there. Maybe in basketball limited to whether a buzzer beater beat the clock. Everywhere else it needs to go.

                DH extends careers. Why does the NL hate players and their families!?

                    Huh, this from an AL fan. And a young one. I did not expect that -- bravo!

                      Yes. Well, sort of. I'm thinking of the electronic line judge. Also the equivalent in cricket. Maybe someday for balls and strikes and foul balls in MLB. Keep that.

                      But screw replay. Let every judgment call on the field stand; let all action be spontaneous. MSFA -- Make Sports Fun Again.

                      Basically, allow electronic assistance but not replay.

                        I’ll miss the double switches, but the writing has been on the wall for awhile. WBC, all star game, and upcoming roster expansion were all pointing towards it.

                        Plus, if I’m remembering the ESPN segment from years ago correctly, the only reason the NL doesn’t have it is because a rep from the Pirates or Cardinals didn’t show up to the meeting and it counted as a no vote rather than abstention and blocked it from passing.
