‘Witt ‘n Wild’ nearly pitched a perfect game in ‘94. A close play at first base on a bunt base hit ruined his bid. Replays showed the batter was out. The game is called the “imperfect game”

Bobby was the first AL pitcher to Homer in 25 years during a 1997 interleague game. The opposing pitcher was Ismael Valdez of the Dodgers. The bat is in the HOF

In 1992 He was in a major trade when him, Ruben Sierra, and Jeff Russel were traded by the Rangers to the Oakland A’s for Jose Canseco.

Him and his son are the highest MLB father son duo draft picks in MLB history. Senior went pick #3 in ‘85 and Junior went pick # 2 in ‘19

On this day in 1956, New York Yankees pitcher Don Larsen tossed the only perfect game in World Series history.

Remember this guy? Perfect games are so rare yet apparently can be random as well…

"People said I didn't do enough in my career and maybe they're right. But I had one great day." - Don Larsen

My uncle was at the game, and as soon as he came home, he handed me his ticket stub. It's been in that screwdown ever since, and nobody ever told me the dangers of screwdowns, so now I'm afraid of trying to open it 😬
