Yusmeiro Petit has retired 44 consecutive batters

[tatddy]

He's 1 batter away from tying the major league record of 45 held by Mark Buehrle. Not an easy thing to do in any era. Would be a nice part of history for a guy who lost a perfect game in the 9th inning last year.

This is crazy. Guy is a thinner version of colon.

He got it. Will he complete a perfect game too!

[tatddy]

Great moment for him got a nice standing O and then gave up a hit the next batter. Perfect, back to business.

Pitcher broke the streak too.

[TwoWays]

He got owned by a pitcher. Unreal!

I remember this guy was pure crap in 09 and he was facing the Phillies. Phillies were favorites and I bet on them. The penetrating guy then pitches a perfect game.
