Armando Galarraga Got Screwed

The title of this post says it all, and that is Armando Galarraga got screwed over last night. There is no nice way of putting it and there is no way to describe how I felt and I am sure there no way to describe how the fans in attendance felt. Galarraga was one out away from a perfect game and because of one bad call but umpire Jim Joyce, he will never have that moment.

Jim Joyce called Jason Donald safe after Armando Galarraga tagged the base before Jason Donald stepped on the base. Tigers managers and players were screaming at Jim Joyce after the game. It was a really bad call and just a really bad situation. I am really surprised Jim Joyce got out of the stadium.

I honestly think Bud Selig should reverse the decision and give Armando the perfect game. The replay clearly shows it was a missed call and if they wanted to the right thing they would give Armando Galaragga his perfect game. Here are Jim Joyce’s comments below.

I want everyones opinions on this because this is huge and it’s history. I done writing because I keep going, I am going to say things I probably shouldn’t. Stay tuned for more on this situation.
