Baseball fans may know the name Jim Joyce, though likely not for anything good.
An umpire, Joyce is most famous for botching the call that cost then-Tiger Armando Galarraga a perfect game, as he ruled a runner who was clearly out safe at first base.
Joyce owned up to the mistake and surely felt worse than anyone could possibly imagine but still, people may not have been too fond of the guy.
That should stop. Right now.
