    Perfect game? You must be talking about the 13-0 pounding the Astros put on the Cardinals today! :)

    Nope. Wang didn't make it. I believe that there have only been 13 perfectos in MLB history. Its a rare bear. Dodger rookie pitcher Chin-hui Tsao is currently working on 8 consecutive perfect innings out of the bullpen, which is pretty unusual. Our thanks to the Colorado Rockies who gave up on him one year too soon and gave him to us for nothing after they spent millions developing him...

    Lost it with one out in the 8th... lost the perfecto, the no-hitter and the shutout on the same pitch.

    But the pitcher wasn't the only one that stepped on his wang...

    To be fair, Posada should have run Laird further up the line, but you know the noo yawk press...

    Timeless classic, Georgie. That Jif, such a crooner. :wink:

    With Tavares on the mound tonight, there's a good chance we'll be singing the blues afterward.
