Armando Galarraga perfect through 8

[scOtt]

Just saw this and the third out in the ninth. Jim Joyce ROBS him!

[PrivateO]

Well MLB is going to have a pain in the ass with this idiotic ump's call.

[Jagwar]

Absolutely the worst call I have ever seen, in the worst situation imaginable

[clarence]

Unreal. One of the greatest catches I've ever seen, and then the freaking ump. Unreal.

[PrivateO]

That is a frickin crime, man.

[clarence]

Watching the Tigers broadcast on Extra Innings. Cant wait to see the post game. Makes you sick.

[JTrea81]

Just another blown call by the umpires. My god have they been horrible this year...

[Trojanman]

The Indians player even knew he was out. What a complete joke! MLB has to do something here.

[ledzepp8]

How do you make that call? Jim Joyce deserves to be fired after that call.

I agree, or at least severely punished. In what world do you see the pitcher's foot clearly on the bag in front of the baserunner's and still call him safe? That young man just got royally dicked out of a piece of history.

[ledzepp8]

Question: Can the Tigers play the game under protest and win after review?

Probably not, just a travesty for that guy to work that hard and have it ripped away from him.

[clarence]

When you get screwed out of something that's happened what, 21 times in history, how do you deal with it?

I really couldn't be more down on baseball right now.

[PaulBako]

Wow what a POS Jim Joyce is. he better never, ever ump another game again.

[clarence]

I agree, or at least severely punished. In what world do you see the pitcher's foot clearly on the bag in front of the baserunner's and still call him safe? That young man just got royally dicked out of a piece of history.

And all that will happen is he will say it's unfortunate that he missed it. MLB and the piece of crap Selig will say the same.

[J.D.]

The sad thing? Jim Joyce is generally considered to be a fantastic ump. Everyone blows a call. He just blew a really important one. His career will get marred by this, but I think it's obvious from the way Leyland reacted when he came out to argue and how he didn't run Miguel Cabrera for basically jawing at him for the entire last at-bat, he knew he blew that call.

[clarence]

The big question: Is Galarraga the first guy to retire 28 straight batters in the same day?
