Re: Armando Galarraga perfect through 7
One of the miracles of nature...to get the perfect game, you have to face 7-8-9 in the last inning. Kind of like a favor from the baseball gods.

Re: Armando Galarraga perfect through 7
Ouch. Bang bang play called safe at 1st. Think the ump was right.
Nope. Ump screwed it up. There's going to be BIG fallout from this.

Re: Armando Galarraga perfect through 7
That ump has to have a horrible feeling in the pit of his stomach right now. You know he wasn't trying to screw over anybody.

Re: Armando Galarraga perfect through 7
What can they do? Maybe change when replays are used? Won't help Galarraga.

Re: Armando Galarraga perfect through 7
Is the ump going to get his ass kicked?
