Mark Buehrle, take two

[nymr83]

he's perfect through 5 tonight, retiring a new major league record 42 batters in a row.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Jermaine Dye homered in the 6th to give Buehrle a run to work with.

As hot as Buehrle is that may be enough.

[Guest Kong76]

That's a pretty sick record to hold.

[nymr83]

Carlos Gomez works a full count but fouls out on the 3-2 pitch

[nymr83]

Buerhle issues a walk to end his batters retired streak at a record 45.
no-hitter still intact.

[nymr83]

and the very next batter singles to break it up.

1 million people just closed gamecast simultaneously.

Alexi Cassilla (.161) works a protracted walk to end the perfection.

Buehrle falling apart (relatively) gives up 3 in bottom 7 and is pulled trailing 4-1 In other O-o-T news, Marlins' Ross Gload hits a 2R PH HR in the 9th to beat Atlanta (we were going to game on someone in this tilt and I'd prefer it be the Braves
