You betcha, 10-0. In the past, Cain would not have gotten that much run support in two months.

Yup. World Series ring in 2010, and now a perfect game!

I watched the entire game and he did have quite the generous strike zone the first 4-5 innings.

But hey, a perfect game is a perfect game. Congrats to Matt Cain.

Is this an unusual year for perfect games?

It feels like there have been more than a few and it might be unusual..

Yes, the strike zone was a mile wide, and he got a couple of excellent defensive plays. Still, 27 up and 27 down!

Two things:

It’s either global warming or Bush has something to do with it.

I’m still waiting for a game where both opposing pitchers throw a perfect game. That would be a doubly perfect game! (They have those all the time in soccer!)

There have been two this year. There were none last year and there were two in 2010.

If it’s against Houston, there should be an asterisk.
