Default Humber perfect game
White sox pitcher pitched 21st perfect game. Even though the last pitch looked like the batter checked his swing.

Has a more obscure pitcher ever thrown one?

He was one of the guys in the Santana to mets trade for my twins. We tried him out, but he was terrible. The key in the trade was Carlos Gomez. Congrats to Humber.

Well, here is a link to decide yourself:

The shame of it is, of course, the extra duty Harvey Haddix put in only to lose the game and the distinction.

Yes, imagine if Gardy and Andersen the pitching coach hadn't wanted to get rid of (for various reasons) Kyle Lohse, Matt Garza and Phil Humber. The Twins could've been a contender insread of on pace to lose 100 games again (technically they only lost 99 last year)

Congrats to Humber. I was at David Cone's perfect game against the Expos. Awesome experience.

Thanks for the bithday wishes Brian. It turned out that my wife planned a surprise birthday party for me. 60 of my friends came. That took a bit of the sting out of missing the game. I am happy that at least one member here was fortunate enough to attend. I'm sure it was an awsome experience. One of my friends came to the party and presented me with the ticket I didn't get to use.

My ticket didn't quite remain in mint shape. Who would have thought?

Here's the shakey video I shot of the last at bat

Shoot me as well. I was walking around downtown before the game and wanted to ask my girlfriend if she minded if we went to the game, but I knew she wanted to take the ferry and spend the day on the Olympic Peninsula.

When we got back she said she would have loved to have gone to the game
