MLB Ump Jim Joyce

Choosing this week’s Bitch-Slap-of-the-Week is easy when there’s a guy like MLB umpire Jim Joyce around.

Unless you have been locked away in solitary confinement or just awakening from an alcohol-induced coma, you are sure to have heard of the horse’s ass ump who botched the call taking a perfect game away from Detroit pitcher, Armando Galarraga, screwing my homies in the Motor City.

Here’s the recap:

With two outs in the 9th inning at Comerica Park in Detroit, young starter Galarraga is one pitch away from hurling the first perfect game in Detroit Tigers franchise history.

The fans are on their feet under the lights, sports fans from around the country are glued to their TV sets watching live feeds anticipating being a part of a historical baseball moment.

Next pitch, it’s a ground ball, Galarranga covers the bag, the throw is on target and in time, the fans and Tigers are ready to erupt in celebration . . .

. . . UNTIL . . . some blind, overpaid fat bastard converts the climactic moment into a total BUZZ KILL, calling the runner safe.

Replays later showed the runner was clearly out by almost a half of step.

SLAP! There’s one right in the chops from the Detroit Tigers organization Mr. Joyce.

SLAAAPP! Have another backhander from the rest of the baseball fans around the country who were glued to their seats wanting to be a part of baseball history.

THUMP! For the first time ever, a swift kick square in the nuts is thrown in because a Bitch-Slap in this case is not near enough.

Our editor at Sports Climax covered this in a more civilized manner comparing Joyce’s gaffe to Bill Buckner’s screw-up during the 1986 World Series as far as notoriety goes but we get pissed off in this column and don’t wanna lay low like that.

In addition to getting Bitch-Slapped and kicked in his junk here on Sports Climax, an anti-Joyce Facebook page was created shortly after the game and a website called FireJimJoyce.com was launched.

I know there’s rumor that the guy who covers up steroid abuse really good, what’s his name . . . Bud Selig, the MLB Commissioner, is considering taking a break from his drug cover-up operation to consider reversing the shiat call made by Joyce.

The game would then go into the history books as a perfect game but all of us fans who were glued to our sets will never be given back that moment that was taken away by Joyce.

After reviewing the play and realizing how bad he f***ed up an obvious call, Joyce said:

“It was the biggest call of my career, and I kicked the [swear word inserted here] out of it. I just cost that kid a perfect game.”

Yes you did, Mr. Joyce. And you cost MLB the opportunity to boast about two stud-performance perfect games in a week and three in this young season and fo9r that you get our Bitch-Slap-of-the-Week.
