Perfecto: Medina Allows No Baserunners
The near-impossible occurred today: Germán Medina pitched a perfect game, securing a place for himself in league history.

Starting for the Monterrey Cerveceros, Medina defeated the Mexicali Algodoneros, 7-0, in a no-run, no-hit, no-man-reach-first game -- the rarest of the rare.

"I knew what was going on," he acknowledged to BNN after the game. "I was hoping the fans would kind of shush a little bit. They were making me nervous."

When his perfect day on the mound ended, he pumped his fist twice at the ground as he was swarmed by his teammates. He made his way off the field to a standing ovation from the crowd and gave fans a final wave before disappearing into the clubhouse.

"You don't talk to the guy about it, of course, but I could tell he was confident," Cerveceros manager Ricardo López said. "He wanted it."

The right-hander walked nobody and struck out 7 in the game, for which he had a special audience in the stands -- his parents. Medina said his dad appeared puzzled in the clubhouse after the game and asked what all the excitement was about.

"He said he got there late, and I was like, 'Oh my gosh, you missed my perfect game!'" Medina recounted. "Of course, turns out he was kidding. They had seen the whole thing."

Thus far this season, Medina has posted a 4-3 record, started 6 games, struck out 45 batters in 57.1 innings and compiled a 2.35 ERA.
