Although video support on baseball has been around for about a dozen years now, there are still some flaws in its structure. These shortcomings are not condemned every time they arise, especially by managers who see themselves on the wrong side of the final judgment. This is what makes us ask: Can this be improved?

You might think of Bliss’s Alec Bom, in a game against the Braves or the Indians’ Jordan Luplow, who thought he hit a home run. Instead of trying to recover, they wallow in their sadness and thus, experience more failure.

The truth is that in this game this system will always have to prove itself if it can prove its credibility.
