(AP) -- Tributes keep pouring in for Detroit Tigers pitcher Armando Galarraga. The Michigan House on Tuesday adopted a resolution honoring him for a "perfect game" thrown last week against the Cleveland Indians.

Baseball history will say Galarraga didn't throw a perfect game. But umpire Jim Joyce has admitted he blew the call that would have given the Tigers pitcher that rare honor.

The House resolution honors Galarraga for showing "poise and class" last week.
