Jim Joyce Declared Dead on Wikipedia Following Perfect Game Gaffe

Umpire Jim Joyce's blown call at first base that denied Armando Galarraga a perfect game was the last mistake he would ever make, at least according to his hastily edited Wikipedia page.

A quick update to the user-edited online encylclopedia declared Joyce, the "very worst ump in Major League Baseball," dead June 2.

Joyce, the first base umpire for Wednesday night's Detroit-Cleveland game, incorrectly called Jason Donald safe on what would have been the final out in the first perfect game in Tigers history.
