Actually it's 3 perfect games in two months.  So many that they're not that perfect, after all.
The pitcher was ours at one time:

"Armando Galarraga originally signed as a free agent with the Montreal Expos on October 31, 1998. He was acquired by the Rangers from the Washington Nationals as part of the deal that sent Alfonso Soriano to the Nationals in 2005."


ESPN has been interrupting the Reds-Cardinals game to show LIVE bonus coverage of the perfect game in process.

Lance Berkman looks like he's probably raped someone in his life.

The twitter is from the guy who runs www.broslikethissite.com. Looking at Berkman closer, I kinda agree.

Here was the Wikipedia entry ... hahaha hilarious!:

On June 2, 2010 Galarraga pitched a perfect game for the Detroit Tigers, defeating the Cleveland Indians 3-0. It was the 21st Perfect game thrown in Major League Baseball history and the third perfect game to be thrown in the 2010 Major League Baseball season; the most perfect games thrown in one season in Major League Baseball history. Galarraga is the first Detroit Tiger to throw a perfect game.

Groundball to first basemen. Toss to the pitcher who touches the base on what looks like a bang bang play... ump calls him safe.

Out by 5 feet.

Grounder to first, pulls Miggy well off the bag, Galarraga has to field his throw at first, runner called safe

Initially, it looked a bit close, but he was definitely out by AT LEAST a half-step

Umpire Jim Joyce is a complete piece of crap at his job

The replays show that he was clearly OUT at first. 
Umpire Jim Joyce ROBBED Galarrago of a perfect game.

Thought I saw Bill Hohn pregame. How did he get to Detroit that quickly? #InstantReplay

This is why Kilgore is awesome.
