Rather than gesticulate on the events that transpired last week and comment on history and un-history, as it were, I thought instead I would share a few comments posted by writers and/or baseball analysts with better qualifications than I and let them stand as: "I feel the same way these folks do."
Joe Posnanski - The Lesson Of Jim Joyce .."Galarraga Smiled" will always be a thought in the back of my mind after reading this.
Fay Vincent - We Must Accept Mistakes...And Move On ...Jim Leyland knows the game, knows how to 'call this play' where actions always speak louder than words.
Last but not least...
George F. WIll - Baseball should not Overrule Umpire's Wrong Call ...long after most of us are dead, Will stands to go down in history as one of the most fluent voices of how "most of us" feel about baseball, mostly because he knows what he wants to say and he knows how to say it briefly and concisely. He summarizes Posnanski's and Vincent's comments in a few basic sentences in this clip.
