Mark Buehrle’s wife Jamie was sitting in a seat near home plate at that time, when Buehrle completed the latest success with a remarkable 5-0 victory over defending American League Champions Tampa Bay Rays in front of almost 25,000 raging fans.
U.S Cellular Field become the record breaking ground for Mark Buehrle, when he send all Tampa Bay team back in the dugout not once not twice but for 9 times, yes all nine innings without any score a perfect day on a perfect ground with perfect pitching, although all team was behind him in his effort but with that catch in the ninth innings when Wise caught that ball over the wall.
It seems that every historic pitching performance includes defining the defense of play and Dewayne Wise provided that for Mark Buehrle leading off the ninth inning, I must say “what a play by Wise”. Wise provided what was needed at that time and making Mark Buehrle one of the legends. With an excellent effort by wise Mark Buehrle was able to put White Sox into a share of first place in the American League Central in flawless manner with the 18th perfect game in major-league history.
After the game talking to the media Mark Buehrle said that he never thought he would be able to throw a no-hitter, a perfect game, perfect pitching with a home run, nothing is impossible in this game. Thirty year old Mark Buehrle became the 6th pitcher in American League history to perfect game, the four times All-Star pitched a perfect game against Texas back in 2007, he also hit a home-run last month while playing against Milwaukee.
