Read This Blog Post? Go Ahead, #JerryMealsSaysItsSafe

Somewhere, Jim Joyce is smiling. Finally, someone blew a call on the level of Joyce's infamous "imperfect" game call. That someone is Jerry Meals and that call put the Pittsburgh Pirates on the losing end of a 19-inning marathon with the Braves. Now before you tell me that this call was not nearly as controversial as Joyce blowing Armando Galarraga's perfect game, consider this:

-The Tigers still won Joyce's game, the Pirates lost (isn't that what REALLY matters?)
-This call affects the Pirates race for the NL Central Division crown, and considering their steep competition, EVERY win is going to matter for them.

With that said, I am not a proponent of extra replay in baseball. Baseball games are long enough without replay, and this is coming from someone who loves baseball. If baseball wants to increase its fan base, adding replay would be the wrong way to do it. That's like trying to get people to start going to church by telling them it's an hour longer than usual. Replays I am a fan of? How about taking another look at some of the best Tweets from today's trending Twitter hashtag, #JerryMealsSaysItsSafe. Enjoy.
