Humber has a prefect game through 7.

2. Accent Shallow Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:01 PM (#4112423)

So . . . is this game still interesting?

3. Srul Itza Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:06 PM (#4112427)

Yes, moderately interesting

The ninth should be a fun inning.

4. ColonelTom Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:14 PM (#4112433)

Blacked out on MLB.TV, and FOX appears to be sticking with the 9-1 Yanks/Red Sox game. Lovely.

5. PeteF3 Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:19 PM (#4112440)

FOX will switch everyone for the bottom of the 9th.

6. ColonelTom Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:20 PM (#4112444)

Well, they've given us a split screen, at least.

7. Srul Itza Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:22 PM (#4112448)

Also a live look in on MLB.com

8. ColonelTom Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:23 PM (#4112451)

Full screen now.

9. Srul Itza Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:24 PM (#4112452)

Ump -- time to expand the strike zone, dammnit!

It must be weird having the opposing team's fans rooting loudly for you, not that I imagine Humber notices.

Very very cool

That was a gift call, but why not? Awesome.

12. Srul Itza Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:26 PM (#4112458)

Sorry, dude, no way they're not calling that a swing there.

13. ColonelTom Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:26 PM (#4112461)

Ryan should have beaten that out. Maybe he didn't want all the hate mail.

14. Weekly Journalist_ Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:26 PM (#4112462)

congrats Humber!

15. Accent Shallow Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:27 PM (#4112464)

Woo!

16. Heinie Mantush (Krusty) Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:28 PM (#4112465)

Only 15 comments on a PERFECT GAME?

17. President of the David Eckstein Fan Club Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:28 PM (#4112466)

Third perfect game I've been lucky enough to see on TV, really awesome

18. ColonelTom Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:28 PM (#4112467)

Well, 16 now.

19. toratoratora Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:29 PM (#4112469)

The perfecto-very nice. Congrats to Mr Humber

20. Srul Itza Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:33 PM (#4112474)

Since it was AJ Pierogi behind the plate, how many people here were rooting for him to throw it away on the last play?

21. AndrewJ Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:33 PM (#4112475)

The 18th no-hitter in ChiSox history. More than I expected.

22. Weekly Journalist_ Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:36 PM (#4112486)

meanwile the yankees/red sox game has turned interesting again. Yankees just scored seven runs in the 7th.

23. AndrewJ Posted: April 21, 2012 at 06:55 PM (#4112526)

Very odd distribution: From 1871 through the end of the 1956 regular season -- 86 years -- there were only 5 perfect games in MLB history. Starting with Don Larsen, there have now been 16 perfect games within just 55+ seasons. Were it not for Jim Joyce, we'd have 17.
