    Chicago White Sox's Mark Buehrle throws perfect game this afternoon against Tampa Bay!

    Only the 16th in modern history! (since 1900)

    Might have been the greatest catch ever given the circumstances. The guy was brought in for defensive purpose and his quote, "the ball always finds you" was right on target

    Ty and I were watching it live. We tore the house apart when Dewayne Wise made that amazing catch. As good as it gets.

    A perfect game has happened only 18 times in MLB history. I saw one live (Tom Browning 1988). I know...I know....There were 17,000 people present, but 400,000 claim they were there!! Honest. I wouldn't lie to you, would I? Naw...
