Good for Denkinger.
As ticked off as I was about that call at the time, (and in some ways, still am) I can deal with a blown call of that sort every once in awhile. The guy missed it. It happens. Scream and yell and cry all you want, but realize it's going to happen, and it's a part of the game, if an unfortunate one.
The mistake I can't deal with from the umpires is the roving strike zone. That there's no "whoops" excuse for, because it happens regularly. Denkinger, if I recall correctly, was one of the better umps in this regard. Jokes aside, he's down as a good umpire in my book.
