A Perfect Game

Congrats to Chicago White Sox pitcher Mark Buehrle for pitching the 18th Perfect Game in MLB history!!!

As the Sox beat the Tampa Bay Rays 5-0, it was DeWayne Wise, a defensive replacement in the 9th, that saved the perfect game and the shutout by robbing Pat Burrell of a home run. And the big blast of the game was a grand slam!!! How more perfect can you get??!

All is well on the South Side of Chicago. But as a Cubs fan, let me tell all White Sox fans not to celebrate yet, as you're team is still in second place (mathematically). And the Sox have a seven game swing between Detroit and Minnesota to face.

But for one day, Chicago (both sides, and the surrounding suburbs) can celebrate perfection. And let the nationwide media blitz begin.

Sincerely,

JayBee Anama
