Perfection: Mark Buehrle pitches perfect game

CHICAGO (AP)—Mark Buehrle(notes) pitched the first perfect game in the major leagues in five years, leading the Chicago White Sox over the Tampa Bay Rays 5-0 on Thursday.

Buehrle (11-3) got a great catch from center fielder DeWayne Wise(notes) leading off the ninth inning to save the bid—and the shutout. Wise entered at the start of the inning as a defensive replacement and when Gabe Kapler(notes) led off with a drive to deep left-center, Wise sprinted and, on a dead run, jumped and got his glove above the fence to rob Kapler of a home run.

Michel Hernandez(notes) struck out, and with fans chanting Buehrle’s name, Jason Bartlett(notes) grounded to shortstop. Buehrle was mobbed by teammates between the mound and first base.

That is pretty awesome to accomplish that after already throwing a no-hitter before. If not for a Juan Uribe error, it would have been the 2nd perfect game this season!
