Dallas Braden - perfect game bid

  • BigAppleBuckeye
    Dallas Braden has a perfect game through 7 innings against the powerhouse offense of Tampa Bay. I guess ARod will know who this guy is soon enough ... PS, I benched him on my fantasy team, and this is absolutely killing me right now.

    I was getting ready to start a thread called "Arod's nemesis perfect thru 7"
  • Trueblue23
    Stuart Scott just jinxed it.

    Can't believe I benched him in Fantasy! ughhh, I lost ERA this week 3.95 to 4.20 ... this would have won it for me!

    Perfect games against one of the best offenses in baseball...impressive
  • wes_mantooth
    He grooved one down the middle on the 3-1 count....beat it into the ground.

    haha i wonder if someone is going to ask Arod about this later.
  • BigAppleBuckeye
    Jim Bunning had a no hitter on Fathers Day in 1964, and now Braden gets one on Mothers Day.
  • Glory Days
    i wonder if his mom was there, he is from that area they said.
  • Glory Days
    looks like his grandma was there.
  • trackandccrunner
    Just insane. Congrats to the guy.

    I believe that they had said on ESPN that his mother died during his teenage years due to melanoma.
  • Mooney44Cards
    His grandmother was there.

    Speaking of which, I dare someone to watch this video of Braden embracing his grandmother and not tear up a little bit.

    This is the video of the final out, the part with his grandmother is near the end.

    you can see he was kinda choked up in his post game interview.
