First team to have two perfect games thrown against them in consecutive years.

5. You read my mind; was about to post a question in the sports forum if it'd be OK |

to repost this in the lounge or even GD. I'm so glad this young man now has a wonderfully happy memory of Mother's Day to go along with the sadness of losing his mom to cancer as a teenager .
