That was brutal.  Don Dekinger thought that was a bad call.

CALL MAY BE REVERSED:
courtesy-espn

Selig would likely consult with his top advisers before making such a ruling. St. Louis Cardinals manager Tony La Russa says the call should be overturned.

Joyce was scheduled to be back at work Thursday afternoon, umpiring at home plate in the game between the Tigers and Indians.

Tigers manager Jim Leyland said MLB gave Joyce the option to not work Thursday's game between Detroit and Cleveland, but Joyce chose to stick with his job behind the plate. Leyland added that Galarraga would present the lineup card and shake hands with Joyce at home plate before the afternoon game.

To give Jim credit he has handled the situation perfectly. Still an awful call. IMHO, if I was the first base coach in that situation I would give the pitcher the benefit of the doubt on the play with what was at stake.

True, we could have, and it's not really smack on the Royals, just the dumba$$ ump, you'd be pissed too if George didn't get his one ring cuz of a horrible call.  Am I right?

Mad props to Galarraga for accepting the bad call as part of the game.  His reaction to the call set the stage for the transcendence of this story beyond baseball.

I assume you meant umpire. In which case, if you gave the pitcher the 'benefit of the doubt' you'd be a terrible umpire and shouldn't be anywhere near competitive baseball.

On a close questionable play like that though? I'd probably still give the tie to the defense since he was throwing a perfect game.

Close, questionable plays are what umpires make calls on all the time. Fans at home had the advantage of watching it from three different camera angles and seeing it 500 times over the next two days so we could him and haw over it. It was a close play with the ball almost coming back out of Galarraga's glove and Joyce made a call. In retrospect it was wrong but it wasn't all that bad. Big difference.

No it was pretty bad, final out of a perfect game and the runner was out my at least one step.

You are refusing to acknowledge something that the umpire himself has already acknowledged.  Weird.

This isn't the Bush model of the country's education system. I'm afraid I'm going to have to leave you both behind. Sometimes, you just have to realize when someone just "won't/can't understand concepts" and leave them by the side of the road. :frown:
