year of the pitcher 3.0 or something now i guess. i just cant see a non-tigers perfect game anymore without being a little bitter about galarraga's.

Get StartedIn a small way I am glad Joyce blew that call. That game will be talked about more than most perfect games. And hopefully when Bud Selig steps aside, the new commissioner will do the right thing and declare it a perfect game.

I think that box score is the most impressive one i've ever seen. 14 k's for a complete perfect game? Dang man, Cain straight up dealt.
Honestly the Galarraga thing does not bother me, I know he did it, and I could give a fuck if it's official.
Just to be able to say the Tigers franchise has one...meh, useless bragging rights IMHO.
Plus if it was a guy like Verlander I'd probably think differently, but it was a guy who was out of MLB just over a year later, and someone nobody ever heard of, even now you always hear people call him Andres Galarraga not Armando.
Either way it was 27 up, 27 down, I saw it. I just don't let it bother me.
But for AG it means something. For a less than average starter to say he saw 27 and all 27 went down, is something. Officially and 20-50 years from now.
