TheBlackSox8 Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 (edited) If you could only play all 9 positions, and bat all spots in a game(with the exception of Beckhams spot in the order)....maybe you would have had another perfect game winning 10-0 Edited July 29, 2009 by onedude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klaus kinski Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 This streak, without having to face a pitcher, and 6 innings on turf is about as great a streak as we may ever see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmmmbeeer Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Not to be a dick, but it was Alexi Casilla that was walked to break the streak. What a sweet run....very impressive. My son asked me if I thought MB's face would appear on the outfield wall some day, lol, I think that's pretty much a given at this point.

Of course, the perfect game was part of this feat as well. When you consider the fact that a perfect game had been accomplished 17 times before, and this had never been done, then yeah it's pretty damn impressive.
