世紀の大誤審、完全試合が幻に
デトロイト・タイガースのアルマンド・ガララーガ投手が6月2日、クリーブランド・インディアンス戦で、完全試合まであとアウト一つのところで、誤審によって大記録を逃す悲劇に見舞われた。
Ump's blown call costs Galarraga perfect game
Armando Galarraga of the Detroit Tigers lost his bid for a perfect game June 2 with two outs in the ninth inning on a call that first base umpire Jim Joyce later admitted he blew.
First baseman Miguel Cabrera cleanly fielded Jason Donald's grounder to his right and made an accurate throw to Galarraga covering the bag. The ball was there in time, and all of Comerica Park was ready to celebrate the 3-0 win over Cleveland, until Joyce emphatically signaled safe.
The veteran ump regretted it.
"It was the biggest call of my career, and I kicked the (stuff) out of it," Joyce said, looking and sounding distraught as he paced in the umpires' locker room. "I just cost that kid a perfect game."
Detroit general manager Dave Dombrowski said Joyce asked to speak with Galarraga. Denied the first perfect game in Tigers history, Galarraga appreciated the gesture. (AP)
