    Re: Almost another perfect game

    GW -

    That was me that referenced the 02 ASG. ASGs in general are another topic all together - especially how the players are selected... ex: Tulo is 3rd in voting right now for NL SS, Rollins is 1st. He's only played in like what a dozen games this year??? They need to remove fan voting and select based on stats at a certain point... but I digress...

    Just wanted to put in a link that just came up on Yahoo!:

    Btw, Chris, thanks for putting in a good word for me with Joe in Tucson. (I think it was you.) He brought up five DBacks prospects bats for me last weekend that I'm very pleased with.

    No problem. Joe is a great guy. I just wish we could have met while I was there.

    I left a few messages here on the boards... maybe next time!

    Re: Almost another perfect game

    I was watching ESPN and they showed Gallaraga receiving a brand new Corvette during today's game. Also the ump Joyce congratulated Gallaraga prior to umpiring today's game and received a nice applause from the fans. Very sportmanlike behavior was shown prior to the game from all parties.

    I think I read closed captions saying that Selig will not overturn the play too. They mentioned the only overturning in the past was the pine tar incident with George Brett.

    Do you think that ump is prejudice? If it was a "white" pitcher on the mound, do you think the outcome would have been different?

    Re: Almost another perfect game

    If you watch the replay the ump was NOT even looking at the runner. He was looking at the first baseman and after he caught the ball, he calls the runner safe. Well, the runner doesn't touch first till after the ball is caught.

    The outcome of the game should be changed! The first 28 out Perfect Game!
    Thank you,
