Perfect weather. Perfect field. Perfect numbers. Perfect game. What more can one ask for.
The Ones got on the board early and they hit hard, taking a 6-1 lead by the top of the 3rd. But the addition of the Sandman into the ONEs outfield must have put them to sleep because the TWOs scored 6 runs in the 3rd inning, stringing together hit after hit after hit.
Their lead did not last long as the ONEs fought back in the bottom of the 5th with 4 runs.
As usual with perfect games, the teams saw themselves tied at 14 a piece going into the 8th. From then on, it was a defensive struggle of monolithic magnitude as both teams flashed some amazing leather. No runs were scored for 3 complete innings before the TWOs managed to sneak in 2 runs in the top of the 11th. The ONEs had no reply. Their offense was shut down completely and the TWOs walked away with the win.
