Brian Cashman will support instant replay in baseball next season.At their meetings in Orlando, Fla., next week, major league GMs plan to discuss whether to recommend using television replay to commissioner Bud Selig and owners.
CASH QUOTE: "I am 110 percent for it and have been for quite some time. This game moves so fast that the amount of times that they (umpires) are correct is just amazing, and that's why they are at the top of their profession. But why not utilize technology to your advantage to make certain that you get the play right on the field at all times, not just 99.9 percent of the time?"
Replays could be used to determine whether balls down the lines are fair or foul, and whether balls that hit near or at the top of fences are home runs.
