Angry with a call on the final play of the Chicago Cubs' loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday night, Joe Maddon lashed out at the replay system, calling for an overhaul that includes "nerds" well versed in analyzing video on the fly.
"I think it screams for an independent group back there to research the video," Maddon said. "That's what I think it screams for as opposed to working umpires that are actually on the field. I think you should get a bunch of nerds back there that know how to look at a videotape and then come to a conclusion. I think it would be much more interesting that way."
All reviews are administered at MLB headquarters in New York by umpires who make the final call.
