July 23 Perfection

White Sox pitcher Mark Buerhle pitched the 18 perfect game in baseball history today. In 125 years of Major League baseball, this has occurred 18 times. I only heard the last two innings on the radio. I couldn't take the excitement. I was yelling in my truck as Mark got each of the last six outs. Cheering like a kid again. When DeWayne Wise robbed one of the Tampa Bay Rays of a home run for the first out in the ninth inning, I felt like a kid again. Screaming YES!!!, just like Hawk Harrelson was on the TV broadcast. That is what makes baseball such a great sport. The ability to feel like a kid again. Thanks Mark. Thanks DeWayne. Thanks to CBSNews.com for the picture.
