Also, unlike a bad ball or strike call, Outs on the basepaths CAN be argued about and they CAN be overturned. In this instance, the umpires should have gotten together and discussed things.
Since they didn't overturn it, Selig should grow a pair and overturn the call. It wont change the game because THAT should have been the last out and the Tigers won anyway. Unlike the 1985 World Series when the bad call was made.

So you want to institute instant replay to look at judgement calls like an out at a base? Where does it end? Do you want balls & strikes looked at too? That is a joke, just because a perfect game was lost on a bad call, you want to start looking at everything and you want it overturned?
