Last night Matt Cain became the first San Francisco Giant to throw a perfect game and he did so in exciting fashion.  It isn't often that you see a pitcher throw a complete game with 14 strikeouts and certainly not a perfect one at that.  Throwing 14 k's in a game is impressive enough but doing it while being perfect is practically unheard of.  His 14 punch-outs tied Sandy Koufax and his modern era record for most strikeouts during a perfect game.

There is a lot of buzz going around that this might be the greatest game ever pitched.  Now I did not get to see the game but the numbers are ridiculous.  Here is the stat line from Matt Cain's perfect game last night.
