I was on my way to bed when my older boy got home from work and told me Cain was perfect through 7, so we put the game on and I watched the last two innings.
This is one of the things I love about baseball. Obviously I'm excited because it's one of my boys this time, but when I hear about any pitcher from any team on the verge of throwing a no hitter or perfect game, I can't help but get excited for that guy and watch the last couple of innings. Homeruns and other records are exciting, but nothing compares to a dominant pitching performance because it's something that builds excitement as the game goes on, to the point where the fans in the stadium are going nuts over every single pitch thrown. The intensity you feel is unmatched in a sporting event, in my opinion... no matter who the pitcher is or what team he plays for.
