The worst part is that AG will probably go on and have a mediocre career like most pitchers in the big leagues. This was his one (and more than likely only) chance to put his name in the record books as pitching a perfect game, the most sought after record a pitcher goes after. That opportunity was taken away from him and there is nothing anyone can do about it...Quote:

Instant replay better be a ******* lock now.
That was Don Denkinger esque. Exactly what I thought of when I saw watched this live.
If you don't like hearing pundits talk about instant replay in baseball, don't watch ESPN for the next week.
Didn't see it live. Finally saw a replay. Unbelievable, even the reaction of the Indian player being called safe was disgusted by it.

Tigers players are watching the replay in their locker room and they look beside themselves.
Which ain't bad for a 28-year old 4 years into his career - his stats are only improving.Quote:

What a joke this is. It is pathetic at how easily avoidable these situations are these days, yet baseball continues to do the wrong thing.
You simply cannot have situations like this regarding calls by officials in important games like this, where the fan sitting on his couch at home knows with 100% certainty that the wrong call has been made, and nothing is done about it. This is unacceptable. Get a clue MLB.
It's possible to not be bad and still be mediocre. His career ERA is 4.62 and has pitched his entire career in a huge ballpark. Nothing against the guy, but let's call a spade a spade.Quote:
