This was actually the first time I've ever watched a no hitter or perfect game while it actually happened instead of just seeing the highlights. I was just flipping around last night and started watching about half way thru. Man that last play was a heart stopper! But I'm glad he did it.
Caught the post game interview, very classy, gave ost of the credit to his catcher for calling such a good game. How can you not pull for a guy like this? He was trapped in baseball's version of purgatory (Toronto) his entire career now he's lighting it up for a te4am that just might get him to The Series.
To the original poster...you know you're not supposed to mention a no-hitter/perfect game in progress, right? We would've been soooooo all over you if you had jinxed him.
And here's a bit of trivia for you guys; can you believe this perfect game, the 20th in MLB history, occurred exactly 20 days after the previous one? Also, more people have orbited the moon than pitched a perfect game.

Video of every out made in that perfect game--and yes the motormouth commentator was trying to jinx him.
