July 30, 2008 -- SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. -- While the major leagues are still deciding, instant replay is coming to Little League.

Replay will be used starting at this year's Little League World Series to look at home runs and other close plays at the outfield fence.

The plan is to use replay on an experimental basis then review its use after this year's tournament.

Dennis Lewin, the chairman of the Little League Board of Directors, says replay will be used to overturn an obvious wrong.
