Geocache Description:




WHAT'S IN A NUMBER?

On June 2, 2010, a perfect game was thrown by Armando Galarraga of the Detroit Tigers but the perfect game will never be in the record books because of an extremely bad call by umpire Jim Joyce. After getting 26 straight batters out and needing only one more out, rookie Jason Donald hit a ground ball to first for the final out. Well, we thought it was the final out but umpire Joyce called the runner safe. Replay shows the runner being out by at least a step and a half! 99.9% of us would have yelled and screamed at the umpire but not Galarraga. He scrugged it off, got the next guy out and ended the game, not blaming anybody for what got taken away from him. With all the bad eggs in pro sports today this is one young man that is truly a professional and a role model for all.







Find his number and you will find the cache.

***JUST A NOTE***

This is an easy micro just for the numbers. If you don't like micros and you are going to complain about it in your log, DON'T FIND IT! We've got over 50 ammo cans in the woods that don't get found that often, go find them!

Thanks and HAPPY CACHING!
