Yup... Jim Joyce blew a call this afternoon about 18 hours after he etched himself into baseball immortality.
He called an inside pitch to Cleveland's Russell Branyan a hit by pitch.
The pitch missed him worse than Sonny Corleone's phantom punch to Carlo.
Well that hit by pitch is starting a rally and a 5-0 Tigers lead is now 5-4.
Am I being nit picky o Jim Joyce? Sure. But after last night, wouldn't you think that ANY borderline call would go the Tigers way today?
The human element!
(By the way, a 4th run just came across the plate at a play at first... where replay showed the runner was out. FYI)
