Note: Beltran in Favor of Replay
Carlos Beltran was robbed of a home run during last night’s 13–0 win over the Marlins in Miami.
…as i wrote last night, the ball, which clearly bounced off the railing in center field, was initially called a home run…however, 
with beltran back on the bench, after having rounded the bases, all four umps gathered on the infield and reversed the call…look, even without instant replay, logic should dictate that any ball bouncing directly 20 feet up in the air had to have done so by ricocheting off metal, not the padded wall…
Willie Randolph, who jogged out to discuss the call, speaking with reporters after last night’s win, said:
“It’s funny, the guy thats closest to the ball saw it as a home run, and he let the other guys over-rule him, which I didn’t understand…He made some excuse about, they weren’t moving. I guess, when you’re running out to the position, which you should be, I guess your head moves…What are ya gonna do, it didn’t hurt us.”
According to the Daily News and Star-Ledger, Beltran, who had already been in favor of instant replay for such occasions, is now 100 percent in favor of instant replay for such occasions.
