Baseball fans in the stands and in front end of their TV sets may make one thing less to boo the umpire around as a result of an agreement reached Wednesday between Major League Baseball and the World Umpires Association under which umpires will be called upon to use of goods and services instant replays to find out whether fly balls ar fair or foul. The two sides had been at odds on whether the TV replays would be reviewed by one and only umpire gang chief, an "umpire supervisor" in New York, or by all the umpires on the field. Wednesday's agreement calls for a crew chief to review them.
