Tigers pitcher Armando Galarraga just had baseball immortality taken from him when first base umpire Jim Joyce blew a call at first base on the 27th and final out of the game. Just awful!

Disgraceful. How an ump can miss a call that badly in that situation is baffling.

Obviously he had to be aware of the situation. You would think that any bang/bang close play, the runner would be out just on merrit alone. But to blow a call on a play that really wasn't that close is absolutely disgraceful. He actually looked like he was originally calling him out and then ruled safe. I'm disgusted and I couldn't even care less about the Tigers.
Now I'm sure we are going to have listen to the instant replay discussions for baseball again for the umpteenth time.

There will be some form of instant replay in baseball after that atrocity. |

If they add instant replay then they definitely need to put the pitchers on the clock.
