10th Anny - David Cone's Perfecto

The Poet · 07-18-2009, 03:16 PM

Today marked the 10th anniversary of David Cone's perfect game against the Montreal Expos, and he was honored in the Bronx by tossing out the first pitch. I remember well that 88-pitch gem against those free-swinging Expos, and will delight to my dying day the sight of him collapsing to his knees on the mound when it was over.

No matter who's your team, take a puff for Cone today.

The 1st pitch was caught by his catcher that day 10 years ago, Joe Girardi.
