It was recently announced that the Little League World Series will use instant replay for all calls except for balls and strikes. Managers can challenge calls as often as they want, as long as they are correct. I think that this is overkill, especially at the Little League level. I like the policy of the NFL and major tennis tournaments where you get a limited number of challenges. Nonetheless, if Little League can use instant replay, so can Major League Baseball. If replay existed, Detroit’s Armando Galarraga would have had a perfect game against Cleveland earlier this year. What’s your opinion on the use of instant replay in the Little League World Series and in Major League Baseball? Comment below.

I don’t see why Little League Baseball is televised. I don’t want to watch 4 hours of some third baseman picking his nose and the catcher peeing himself. No one under the age of 16 should be on TV unless they’re needed as a child role on a movie/TV show.
