O.K., I know this is off-topic and has nothing to do with Alembic, but Dallas Braden of my beloved Oakland Athletics pitched a perfect game today: 27 men up, 27 men down. No hits, no walks, no errors, In the entire history of baseball, this is only the 19th perfect game ever pitched. I believe they said it works out to one perfecto per 11,000 games. Way to go Dallas! Whooo Hooo! Bill, tgo | ||

Also, the fewest swings and misses in a perfect game, 5. That was mentioned during the Red Sox-Yankee game tonight. | ||

Great stuff! I wish it had been against the Yankees, after the A-Rod flap. And I wish he was on the other side of the bay (45 year Giants fan)! | ||
