Also sodomy?

[Willie]

I believe he's referring to Detroit's Galarraga, who has a perfect game through 8.

Also sodomy?

I think that is an understood point in this case.

18 perfect games since 1867, looking at possibly a third one in 2010! I hope it happens.

Ah, OK. I'm busy watching a hockey game.

oooO the umpire is being ripped bigtime on twitter.... aint watching but they say he was out.... if so FUCKING UMPIRE SHOULD BE KICKED IN THE FACE A FEW TIMES

[Willie]

He'll be lucky to make it back to his hotel room tonight. Jesus Christ that wasn't even close. IF he survives, MLB HAS to overrule that and give him the perfect game. They absolutely HAVE to. If they don't, Selig should be shot too.

And even if Selig does overturn the call and give the perfect game thats not a deal breaker to shooting him....

[dgreco]

one of the worst calls I have ever seen.

For those of us not watching the game, nor know what play you're talking about, nor stalking twitter updates... what happened?

blown third out by ump

video to the right, not the best view, view from dugout shows it much better, but still get the idea.

[93henfan]

Watch the video: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/recap?gameId=300602106

Clearly a blown call, and how could you even make a safe call on a close play in that situation. Not only a bad call, but bad style. That ump should NEVER ever get a playoff or all-star game in his career going forward.

26 outs into a perfect game and Jim Joyce ruled this safe

That ump better shave that handle bar mustache he's got goin' on, cuz people are going to be on the look out for him.

I always say it, baseball is such a great game, but is run by complete idiots.

What a joke this is. It is pathetic at how easily avoidable these situations are these days, yet baseball continues to do the wrong thing.

You simply cannot have situations like this regarding calls by officials in important games like this, where the fan sitting on his couch at home knows with 100% certainty that the wrong call has been made, and nothing is done about it. This is absolutely unacceptable. Get a clue MLB.

Horrid call

+1

This arrogant nonsense in baseball where an ump will not reverse a call is simply of a bygone era. Embrace technology for crying out fucking loud.

Bud Selig has a chance hear to earn an ounce of respect from me by making the right call, because I have zero respect for the imbecile right now.

Baseball needs replay starting tomorrow morning and using it retroactively.

via twitter, Michigan Governor to issue proclomation declarng Gallaraga pitched a perfect game...


GovGranholm: As governor, I'm issuing a proclamation declaring Galarraga pitched a perfect game!

[JoltinJoe]

The Denkinger call is almost the same play. Also, the confusion caused by the same defensive mistake -- a first baseman ranging too far for a ball the second baseman fields easily.
