Perfect game!!!!

[owlmoose]

Matt Cain -- cornerstone pitcher for the SF Giants, my favorite player of all time, and all-around great guy -- just threw the first perfect game in Giants baseball history, and only the 22nd one in Major League Baseball.... ever.

I literally cannot think of anyone more deserving.

We turned on the game in the 7th inning, and I was on the edge of my seat for the rest of the night. It was beautiful, it was brilliant, the crowd was on fire.

T had almost gotten tickets at the last minute, too, but then it didn't work out. Curses!

Still, I am thrilled just to have seen it real-time on TV. I had long expected that Cain would throw a no-hitter someday, and I feel fortunate to have even been in proximity.

I was actually watching it with you: Vin mentioned there was some magic going on up north, so I turned the volume down on him (blasphemy!) and put the Giants game on my laptop so I could watch both at once. I tuned in at the top of the 8th. Goosebumps, for sure.

I know Cain's been a steady hard worker for you guys. Good pitching is beautiful.
