Armando gets robbed

I'm sorry, but it's balls ass hard to throw a perfect game. And Armando Galarraga will likely NEVER toss another one, but I seriously think he got robbed. What's sad is that even the umpire admitted to blowing the call, judge for yourself.

I think this kid and the umpire both showed lots of class in how they handled it. Armando could have lost his cool, and the ump could have stayed silent. I think it was more of a rare thing in how they handled it, and how Armando took out the starting lineup the next day to the plate umpire who was the same guy, they hugged and the umpire apologized again tearfully and sincerely. This game and how it ended will be remembered far longer than the other two perfect games thrown this year already. So, I like how it turned out.

The mob called the ump in the ninth inning and told him to make that call. A big gambler had bet Big $ that Gallaraga would pitch a perfect game this year and it would have paid off in the millions.
