Mark Buehrle of the Chicago White Sox became the 16th pitcher in Major League Baseball’s modern era to throw a perfect game, beating the American League champion Tampa Bay Rays 5-0.
Randy Johnson was the last pitcher to retire all 27 batters he faced, with Arizona on May 18, 2004. The last American Leaguer to accomplish the feat was David Cone with the New York Yankees on July 18, 1999.
“I was hoping it was staying in there, give him enough room to catch it. I know the guys were doing everything they could to save the no-hitter, the perfect game, whatever it might be,” Buehrle said.
“I was with the Braves in ‘04 and I was there when Randy Johnson of the Diamondbacks pitched a perfect game. So I’ve been on both sides of it,” he said. “It was probably the best catch I’ve ever made because of the circumstances.
“It was kind of crazy, man, because when I jumped, the ball hit my glove at the same time I was hitting the wall. So I didn’t realize I had caught it until I fell down and the ball was coming out of my glove, so I reached out and grabbed it.”
“I’m still in shock. Thank you, sir,” Buehrle told Obama over the phone.
The perfect game helped the White Sox move into a de facto tie with the Detroit Tigers for first place in the AL Central (Chicago is behind Detroit by 1/100th of a percentage point), with the two teams set to open a four-game series on Friday in Detroit.
