MLB replay system leaves a lot to be desired

Sometimes while playing wiffle ball in our cul-de-sac, one of my boys will hit into a controversial/close play at one of the arbitrarily measured stations which will require the use of "instant replay."

At that point, we’ll have the offending player reverse their steps and make a "tape rewinding" sound with their mouth and backup to their previous position. The pitcher-infielder-outfielder (me) will then "rewind the ball" while making that same noise and have the player slide and the ball arrive, to fit the narrative of what the boys want the result of the play to be.

For better show, we will even "rewind the play" for better/different angles.
