Tag Archives: Perfect Game

Perfecto, and not so perfecto.

Better late than never right? Well, first off, MASSIVE amounts of congratulations of Felix Hernandez on his perfect game yesterday. In reality, what took him so long? Being and A’s fan, I get to see him more than I would like to, but watching him dominate (even my team) is magical. I just wish he played for a team that was going to give him more than just moral support. Soak it in Lord Felix, because so far perfection hasn’t exactly brought good things. The last six pitchers to throw perfect games aren’t exactly tossing their best games as of late. Hell, Dallas Braden (May 9th 2010), is going under the knife for the second time in two years. Wish you the best Felix!

Now for the not so hot news of yesterday. Melky Cabrera of the SF Giants was suspended 50 games for the use of PEDs (Testosterone). ** While having my cross bay rivals loose their hottest hitter and top RBI guy did leave me chuckling a bit, I can’t help but be completely disappointed in the guy. What is this, the 80s? I guess I can understand the reasoning behind wanting to take PEDs, but seriously, guys can make it big staying clean,  so for the sanctity of the game, keep it clean boys. You’re letting your team down. The Giants are in the playoff hunt, let’s see how the loss of Melky effects them.

That’s all for now! Comments, and questions below!

**The Giants have less than 50 games left in the season, meaning that if they do make past the first round the post season, and the Melkman finds a way to stay in shape without baseball activity, the Giants ultimately have the option of bringing him back.
