He pitched last night and struck out 11.

Whitesox.com: The Humber Games, lol.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Apr 21, 2012 -> 03:36 PM)
Humber just struck out the side.

 

Yeah, you read that right.

Haha, this was the 2nd inning. If only I knew...

 

Humber just threw a PERFECT GAME.

 

Yeah, you read that right.

Somehow he's not trending on Twitter yet.

 

But here are some tweets:

 

Sarah Spain ‏ @SarahSpain

Nothing like the suspense of a perfect game - amazing stuff from Phillip Humber!!!! #whitesox

 

Rice Owls ‏ @RiceOwlsdotcom

Way to former Rice Owl Phillip Humber in the perfect game!

 

Carlos Delgado ‏ @carlosdelgado21

#perfectgame for Phillip Humber. Congratulations!

 

Aaron Boone ‏ @AaronBoone_ESPN

Congrats to Phillip Humber on perfect game. 96 pitches is all it took. 9 K's. Awesome slider working today.

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 21, 2012 -> 05:30 PM)
For Phillip Humber!

 

 

Fantastic.

I'm giving ESPN their props on leading off their 5:30 SportsCenter with 7 minutes of Humber/White Sox. :cheers

Probably because people (like all the above) spell it with 2 L's when there is only one.

And follow that with Daniel Bryan's YES chant.

Haha, damn W and E keys being so close together...

 

April 21st of every year shall be named Humber Day! What a great story!! :) What a great guy and lets hope this boosts the team into one of those 2 wildcard spots ;) :gosoxretro:

And of course, EBay is selling Phil Humber rookie autograph cards at inflated prices. Why do I even bother sometimes?!?

I would just like to post in this historic thread of course. :D

Only because Yanks/Boston was still was going on.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 21, 2012 -> 03:32 PM)
Tempted to order a Humber jersey right now.

My daughter was at the game wearing hers. Pretty sure she was the only person in attendance wearing one. Leaving the game with her was a total blast. You wouldn't believe all the Mariner's fans high-fiving us. Mariners fans are pretty cool, I must say.

That is pretty awesome. I have been to Safeco before as well as a traveling Sox fan and was treated nicely as well. Great game to be at!

 

Dominating performance though. Wow.

The standing ovation was very classy.

Yep. I have often wondered if I were at a Sox game in Chicago and the Sox were on the wrong side of something like this, could I cheer for the opposing pitcher? I honestly don't think I could. Maybe in the end but not while the game was still going, and many Mariners fans were. Like I said, they're pretty cool.

I was at a game in the mid 80's where Dave Steib had a no hitter for TOR going to the 9th at Old Comiskey. The fans were cheering for him to get it.

I hate you, Fox...watching the archived game now, though! PHIL!

Yes it was. Sox fans are good also, I was at Reggie Jackson's last game at Old Comiskey and his last at bat the whole crowd yelled "Reggie Reggie" and he got a single and tipped his cap to the crowd in appreciation cool stuff.
