Even As fans were cheering him on later in the game
I mean unless it is a World Series elimination game if an opposing pitcher takes a perfecto into the late innings I’d be rooting for it too. How cool to be able to say you saw a perfect game in person, that has only happened 24 times in the last 150 years
Pitchers who have beaten the A’s with a perfect game since the franchise’s birth in 1901:
- Cy Young
- Domingo Germán
The only time I thought I’d see those two names together was “Domingo Germán will never win a Cy Young.” Still true, but this is also crazy.
I’ve tuned in to at least parts of 90% of games this season. This is one of the few I’ve missed and I’m kicking myself. My Apple TV even notified me that “Domingo German is dealing” and I ignored it.
I’m a Yankees fan. I missed a perfect game. FML.
Tell me about it! A late game on the west coast against the worst team in the league (and we lost to them yesterday). I went to bed early!
Yeah I think the loss the day before soured me so I knew I needed to not pay attention. Damnit
