How Would _______________ Have Handled Jim Joyce Call?

[UNHWildCats]

I thought it would be fun to speculate on how other pitchers might have handled the situation had they been in Armando Galarraga's position last night.... I think we can all agree that Galarraga handled it very nicely, but we all know that not all pitchers would have.

Roger Clemens: "I'm going to find out where you live and come after you this winter." This was spoken to an umpire after being tossed from a playoff game in 1990, one can only imagine how far he'd have gone had his super star ego been stepped on by a umpire standing between him and history. I could easily see Clemens physically attacking the umpire and not stopping til he was a pile of broken bones and blood.

Kenny Rogers: He'd "borrow" a cameramans camera, show Joyce the replay on the screen then beat the hell outta him with it.

[Gil Dobie]

Curt Schilling would cut his ankle and ask the commissioner for sympathy

[Rob Iola]

Pedro Martinez would've tipped his hat and said "Jim Joyce is my daddy"...

[Ivytalk]

Juan Marichal would've gone after him with a bat.

[Seahawks]

Don Drysdale would have put a high hard one up near his head.


Seriously, Galarraga has displayed an unbelievable amount of class. In a twist of fate, he will be more famous for the perfect game he didn't pitch, than if he had.

[Seahawks]

Pedro Martinez would've tipped his hat and said "Jim Joyce is my daddy"...

[UNHWildCats]

Pedro Martinez would've tipped his hat and said "Jim Joyce is my daddy"...

He would then go find Joyce's father and throw him to the ground...

[Catattack]

Nolan Ryan would have.......

[Seahawks]

[ASUG8]

Chuck Norris would have put his hand into his chest, shown Joyce his still beating heart, roundhouse kicked his head into Lake Erie, and banged Joyce's wife.
