A PERFECT DAY FOR EMOTIONAL BASEBALL 1

I have never thought I would be emotional to baseball as I am now. I always believe baseball represents manly things men do: bawl at each other, curse hierarchy decisions, chew tobacco, spit anywhere… yeah, baseball, the perfect place for gross. But what happens at the Cleveland Indians-Detroit Tigers games at the Major League Baseball where the Armando Galarraga perfect game controversy takes place, make me forget about what baseball stands for in my vocabulary. Let me explain further.

On 2 June 2010, Jim Joyce called Jason Donald of the Indians safe on first base. However, replays proved that the call was wrong and Donald should have been out. Should Jim Joyce made a correct call, pitcher Armando Galarraga would have had a perfect game for not allowing any hits or walk for 27 up batsmen. In an arena conquered by men and their macho image and self adulating ego, a wrong call like that called for justice, violence and retaliation. But Armando Galarraga did not even say a word.
