What makes the Galarraga near-perfect game so intriguing is that it hinges on what should have been the last out of the game – number 27 – when first base umpire Jim Joyce missed the call on a ground ball play by Jason Donald calling him safe instead of out that would have resulted in Major League Baseball’s 21st perfect game. At the time, there was no instant replay for calls on the base paths. The Galarraga game quickened that into happening. For the complete reflection, click on the title above.
