In Buehrle's no-hitter a few years ago, he gave up one walk (to Sammy Sosa) and promptly picked him off in the next at-bat. So he faced the minimum in that one as well.

I remember that game. Great for Buehrle. I'm so excited, and I think the Sox are tied for first now as well in the division. Great day. Now, if only I could actually watch some of the games this summer I'd be okay (in Philadelphia for summer school). It feels weird having the Sox be such a distant part of my summer.

Thoroughly amazing. He's just the sixth guy in history to throw a no-hitter and a perfecto in his career, and just the 24th guy with multiple no-hitters.

Yep, it's quite the feat. Congrats to Mark.

Nice catch too. I always couldn't imagine how nervous players feel when they are out there during a perfect game. One error and you are labeled as that guy.

So same ump and the same exact time of game. Weird.

Obama is a hardcore sports fan. I mean, other presidents always liked or pretended to like sports, but Obama is pretty hardcore. I can just tell.
