Happened to Salty last season when he was throwing it back to Millwood, turned out he had a bad injury though.

I was waiting for the sportscentre guys to suggest he starts reading playboy, but they never did.
I'd rather have a sister in a whorehouse than a brother who's a Yankees fan.

2 outs in the 9th, 83 pitch and a single breaks up the perfect game.  Ouch

Replays showed he was out...and it wasn't really a play where there was doubt.  I really don't understand how, as an umpire, you make a call like that with 2 outs in the 9th inning with a perfect game on the line...AND THEN GET IT WRONG.

Ya.  That play wasn't even close.  Joyce is gonna get lynched if anyone in Detroit gets their hands on him.

He has apologized and called it the biggest call of his career

Um so why can't MLB reverse the call and give him a perfect game?

Because the umpires call is final.

Galaragga gave the tearful Joyce the lineup card before the game started this afternoon.

Apparently Joyce and his family are getting much abuse...that's a shame.

His wikipedia page was updated to included yesterday as his date of death along with some anti semetic comments.   Pretty disgusting people are takin this out on his family.  This is not Joe West or CB Buckner or Bob Davidson, Joyce has been a very good umpire for decades.  The guilt he will carry for the rest of his life is punishment enough.

I don't see any harm in reversing the call and making it official.

He'll always have a 28-out perfect game in my books though, but it would be nice if it was made official.
