The league won't fire anyone over one mistake, heck, they won't fire umps who actually deserve it, Like Angel Hernandez after the infamous Yankees-Sox Division series, or Joe west calling Mark Buerhle on multiple balks despite them not actually qualifying as balks!

On top of that Galaragga and Joyce later published a book together about the event and he likes to think of himself the first person to pitch a "28-out perfect game". So while a perfect game would have been an amazing achievement, the fact and he and Joyce found solace in the aftermath of the blown call is something that he can proud of. So what about Galaragga?
