From ESPN: Philip Humber had Tommy John surgery before his career even started. He bounced around a bit as he tried to make it in the major leagues.
Now, well, Humber is just perfect.
Humber threw the first perfect game in the majors in almost two years, leading the Chicago White Sox to a 4-0 victory over the Seattle Mariners on Saturday.
"What just took place was just awesome," Humber said.It was baseball's 21st perfect game and first since Philadelphia's Roy Halladay threw one against the Florida Marlins on May 29, 2010. It was the third in White Sox's history, joining Mark Buehrle against Tampa Bay on July 23, 2009, and Charles Robertson against Detroit on April 30, 1922.

It is so rare to have a pitcher throw a perfect game. You need luck and skill just to win a baseball game in the Big Leagues. And to throw a perfect game, you need skill and luck times 100.
And to the fans that got to witness the game, hold onto your ticket stubs, it is part of Major League Baseball history.
