Hoculi is or was a practicing attorney, which just seems so strange to me.
And if I had my way I'd have a whole crew of officials upstairs with their eyes glued to monitors ruling on hits like these, and any and all turnovers. None of that should be done of the field. If done properly I don't think it would slow down the game in the least.
That's a good point. With the number of cameras now watching every play and today's technology available (and already in use in games), you would think it would actually expedite the flow/process in many ways. The MLB has done this to a certain degree and it appears to be working well.
