After Giants baserunner Buster Posey was tagged out yet called safe last night, the debate about instant replay in baseball has sprung up again.
↵As Jeff Schultz uncovers, Giants skipper Bruce Bochy was formerly in favor of instant replay, but something's very recently changed his tune:

Bochy had been quoted in an ESPN.com story last month about how he was in favor of baseball expanding its use of replay. Quoting: "I just want to get it right. It’s OK to lose a game if the other team beats you. But if you lose a game because a call goes against you, it’s hard to sleep at night."
↵So what did Bochy say after the game Thursday night, given replay would’ve gone against his team? This: "In certain cases, [yes]. But no, plays like this, no, I’m not. You keep the game moving. But I talked about balls maybe down the line, maybe a play at the plate. But, no, you start to slow the game down when you start reviewing every play."
