Pumping umps

Umpires voiced their concerns over instant replay by not using their voice at all, ditching a conference call with MLB. Baseball needs an agreement with the union in order to implement replay. Umpires are upset with procedural issues.

"Major League Baseball needs to step up to the plate and iron out these issues."

Considering that other sports like football and basketball have been using replay for many years now, baseball's been hasty about implementing the system this year. It's not like they couldn't do this in the previous offseason, or even years before, and they better make sure everyone and everything is right before moving forward. It's a good thing that umps want to get things right before baseball saddles itself with a potential problem. Give umps credit for taking pause here.
