Rare New York Yankee Feats

David Cone 
Against Montreal on 7/18/1999

It has been a very long time since a perfect game has been thrown. If you do not know what a perfect game is, it is a game in which all batters from one team are retired in order with no one reaching base.

David Wells
Against Minnesota 5/17/1998

Don Larsen
Against Brooklynn on 10/8/1956

Did you know that there has only been 23 pitchers in the history of baseball who has thrown a perfect game? Three of those pitchers were from the New York Yankees. 

The three pitchers achieving a perfect game are David Cone in 1999, David Wells in 1998, and Don Larsen in game 5 of the 1956 World Series. 

There is no game today. Off day for New York as they travel to Boston as Tanaka will take on Owens in a night match. Game time will be at 7:05 p.m.
