Diamond backs pitcher Randy "The Big Unit" Johnson pitched a perfect game today. It was the 17th perfect game in baseball history. I know it doesnt have much to do with Mustangs. But if I get my 05 I will be driving it to D Backs games,so in a way it does.

In a perfect game, the pitcher issues no BBs (base on *****) or HPBs (hit by pitch). Basically, no one touches a base.

In a no hitter people can still get walked and beaned.

Perfect game is nobody gets on first base for any reason. It's almost impossible.

Sorry, but the first one was a no-hitter, not a perfect game.

Scottie's right. Johnson had a :nono: in 1990, but walked six batters in a 2-0 win vs. the Tigers. (Walked six Tigers? :scratch
