Then they meet.

Jim Joyce apologizes to Galarraga, Galarraga accepts, they hug. Class by Joyce, incredible class by the kid.

Quotes:

"That wasn't a call. That was a history call. And I missed it from here to this wall."

"I don't blame the Tigers for anything that was said. I don't blame one person a bit."

"If I were Galarraga, I would have been the first one in my face, and he didn't say a word to me."
That is nice to hear. Really nice.
