Humber Is Lucky 21

Chicago White Sox pitcher Philip Humber isn't the firs tname that you'd associate with the phrase "perfect game."

Now it is- regardless of what anyone thinks...

He's now the 21st pitcher in major league history to go that way...

All he needed was 97 pitches to beat the Seattle Mariners and he's now the third White Sox pitcher to do the job in that fashion...

Here's Humber- who still seemed shocked...
