It’s time for baseball to have instant replays

It was a sad day June 2 for those who enjoy Major League Baseball when that young pitcher was denied a perfect game because of an umpire's bad call.
The NFL has instant replay to get calls right when they are close. Baseball has the same technology available and needs to start getting calls like this right. It's time for Commissioner Bud Selig to step up to the plate.
