Plus we'll be talking about this for a lot longer than if there was no controversy. Dallas Braden has already faded back into obscurity. But this is gonna last. And that will only be good for him.
Good points. Umps are gonna feel really sorry for the guy. I actually wonder how Jim Joyce's strikezone was today for the Tigers.

Plus, I have a feeling that Galarraga will eventually get his perfecto made official. I'm not sure Selig will cave in under the pressure, but his successor may change it when he comes in. Either way, it will be remembered forever, and will probably never happen again in those exact same circumstances.
