That was the 3d perfect game pitched in Oakland (Hunter and Braden) and shockingly the 12000 who witnessed it was the largest crowd of the three!
Despite Ohtsni’s feats, I’m not a fan of the Mets grabbing him. There is no precedent for what he’s doing, and it truly does not seem sustainable, as he’ll be in his 30s for the entirety of the ridiculous contract he’s about to get. I guess he’ll stick around as a hitter, even when his arm goes, but that wont be worth the 50-60MM/year he’ll be getting.
