Jim Joyce

The call by first base umpire Jim Joyce has to be the worst call in baseball history.  The runner was out by at least half a step.  This is seriously a sad day for baseball.  Just terrible.  Armando Galaraga deserved that perfect game.  I think this could change the use of instant replay in the sport. 

Anyone else angry?

RE: Jim Joyce

Angry is an understatement. Furious probably is not enough either. With all the controversy over umpires recently as it is, Joyce is going to multiply that controversy by 1000. Frankly, I think MLB should award Galarraga with the official perfect game and try to erase that horrendous, idiotic, imbecilic piece of stupidity from the history of the game. Umpire's are important, but he has singlehandedly changed the course of the sport's history because of his shameless blindness. It only further enrages me at the way way MLB umpires are handling their jobs as of late.

Oh, and in addition, Joyce should be heavily fined and suspended. If someone doesn't send the message soon, they'll never get it.
