Galarraga set down 26 straight Indians Wednesday night and stood one out away from the third perfect game of 2010 when he got shortstop Jason Donald to ground a slow roller to first baseman Miguel Cabrera. Galarraga rushed to cover first, received the throw from Cabrera and touched the bag.
Joyce called Donald safe, but video replays clearly showed Galarraga had beaten Donald to the bag.
A full-time umpire since 1989, Joyce admitted his mistake after the game.
