StatManDu Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 And I know no one was BUT for the hell of it, here are two nuggets heading into tonight's clash: MARK BUEHRLE was the last White Sox pitcher to fire a complete game shutout against a reigning American League champ. On July 23, 2009, Buehrle threw a perfect game against the Tampa Bay Rays at U.S. Cellular Field. MELIDO PEREZ was the last White Sox pitcher to throw a complete game shutout against a reigning American League champ on its own field. On Sept. 17, 1990, Perez tossed a five-hitter in a 7-0 win at Oakland. Earlier that year, Eric King also logged a shutout at Oakland.

elrockinMT Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 QUOTE (Rowand44 @ May 24, 2011 -> 10:38 PM) That was a good game. It was. I was at a bar and restaurant for lunch and the sports bar crowd was watching that game on TV and yelling about Wise's catch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Except that Melido Perez game was only six innings pitched, right? I know it wasn't a CG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're confusing a shutout with his rain-shortened no-hitter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StatManDu Posted May 25, 2011 Author Share Posted May 25, 2011 You're confusing a shutout with his rain-shortened no-hitter. I was aware of Perez's no-hitter that wasn't. However, that was not against a defending champ and it took place in July while the Perez no no took place in September. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
