Question is what the title states, should Major League Baseball give him the perfect game?

While it's clear he EARNED it, and deserves it, I think it sets a very dangerous precedent to start overturning on field calls after the fact.
Umpires are human and make mistakes - sucks BIG in this case, but that's the nature of sports sometimes.
I think a stronger call for instant replay in baseball will come from this though.

You can't give him that moment on the field back, celebrating his accomplishment with his teammates, which is a shame. But he at least deserves to be acknowledged in the record books for what he accomlpished last night.
If the Tigers ownership has a heart they will give him the bonus.+1
BUT!, did you guys know that he lost $100,000 because of that? It's in his contract.

Did you guys see Joyce and Galarraga before the game? It was pretty touching, the fans even cheered. Looks like things aren't going to be as bad as I thought, glad to see it. I didn't want to see another Denkinger moment.

im from the D....... man we are all shook up about this BUT the greatest lesson that was seen and heard by all is how they acted.
Galerraga was a man about it
Joyce did exactly what we needed to see/hear
Jim Leyland while hot at first, cooled off and cooler heads prevailed
it was an amazing feat (our first in Detroit baseball history) but even more amazing how it kinda boiled down....... that was the truly cool part!
