The Houston Astros pitching staff gave the fans an evening that they'll never
forget by tossing a combined perfect game! The tension started to build
around the 6th inning. By the 9th inning the crowd was electrified. Houston
had 13 hits for the night.
The victory was credited to Jimmy Anderson(12-11) who went 7 innings, allowing
no runs. Jeff Suppan(11-12) was the losing pitcher. He allowed 11 hits and 2
walks in 6 and 1/3 innings.
'You probably have a better chance of winning the lottery than this
happening,' said Anderson who got credit for the win, 'I don't expect it to
sink in for awhile.' he said. 'You know, it's hard to say who was better, the
starter or the bullpen!'
