Check swing and a throw to first for the last out after the ball got away LOL Ridiculous.

Awesome to see.

Congratulations to Humber. Could be a little controversy though. Last out was on a check swing. Do you guys think Ryan swung through? If he didn't, that's a walk.

Were the Seattle fans cheering for it to happen or not?

Yeah, but they were also cheering the Mariners on to get a hit.

Damn, Humber becomes the 7th ex-Met to pitch a perfect game. The Mets have 0.

i thought it was a walk. they didn't really show a good angle after it happened and i haven't caught any highlights.

Congrats on the perfect game.

Last pitch was way outside, but the check swing was up to interpretation by HP ump.

Atleast it wasn't like Jim Joyce and Galarraga where he just completely blew the call. The ump did the right call for the last play.
