Yankee anouncers ripping him too as well as everyone else. It's really awful.

Galarraga is trying to hold back tears here. He knows he was fucked.

They should do something about that.

Obviously a public apology will be forthcoming, but they must be able to do something about that

Wow, that was sick.

The robots are coming.

Umpires are going to be a thing of the past.

 He definitely should.  He essentially went 28 outs of perfect baseball...cause that wasn't even close.

MLB needs new instant replay rules that's for sure. They need to expand it to review shit jobs like the one that ump just pulled.

You know how close plays can be. So being out by a FULL STEP is a mile in this scenario and that's exactly what happened.

it was a bang bang play no doubt but he was out by half a step, but still a trained umpire and the situation has to call out

Galarraga's foot was on the bag with the ball in his glove BEFORE Donald took the final step to touch 1st.

That Ump probably had money on Cleveland and was hoping for a 2 out rally!

I am not a Tigers fan, but I feel sick for that guy. What a nice kid too. Totally did not react like an a-hole and stoop below the official's level.
