KFDM COOP Posted July 28, 2006 Report Posted July 28, 2006 From shoelessjoelives Kenny Rogers was perfect...ON THIS DATE (July 28) In 1994, the Rangers Kenny Rogers hurls a perfect game versus the Angels, 4-0. He is the first left-hander in AL history to toss a perfecto. In 1991, Dennis Martinez of the Expos tosses a perfect game versus the Dodgers, 2-0. Catcher Ron Hassey becomes the 1st catcher to be behind the plate for two perfectos. He was behind the plate also in 1981, when Len Barker blew away Toronto, with 27 up and 27 down. In 1958, for the sixth time of his career, Mickey Mantle homers from both sides of the plate in the same game versus the Athletics. Mantle homered from both sides of the plate in the same game a ML record 10 times during his career !! Whitey Ford pitched the Yanks to a 8-0 win this day.
