re: Tony’s wrong...you can’t overturn calls post-game....suppose the first batter of a game is called out when he was clearly safe...turns out, the pitcher throws a no-hitter..do we go back and review that first call and turn it around and take away a no-hitter??..

It's a very interesting question.

This seems like just one of those sad outcomes that happens in life.

Also: The pitcher has shown great class after the game, and will receive certainn credit for that .... and for the game that he pitched.

Technically, the game was over when the first baseman caught the ball with his foot on the bag. There is no replay or anything else - THE GAME WAS OVER!
