How many perfect games?[edit]

ESPN says this is the 16th perfect game in baseball history. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.23.173.211 (talk) 20:33, 23 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]


It appears that this is the 18th in baseball history but the 16th since 1900.

Not only is he the 24th pitcher to throw multiple no-hitters, he is also only the 6th pitcher to ever have multiple no-hitters where one of them was a perfect game. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.190.213.254 (talk) 21:23, 23 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Removed Passages[edit]

I removed the following passages as I consider them unimportant to this article:

Buehrle is known as a fun-loving player; he has entertained fans during rain delays by sliding along the wet tarp, drawing criticism from manager Ozzie Guillén, who was concerned about injury. Buehrle agreed to end the practice after a warning from general manager Ken Williams early in the 2006 season.

and

In September of 2004 Buehrle spoke out against the division rival Minnesota Twins: "You have Johan Santana and Brad Radke, and you've got a chance, but then you look at the rest of their roster and you really can't see them getting past the first round. Anything can happen, but I don't see it," Buehrle told the suburban newspaper, the Chicago Daily Southtown. Buehrle later offered the Twins a chance to prove him wrong. "If it comes down to it, give me any number I need to call and if they get past the first round, I'll call and apologize to everyone I need to... I'll call Minnesota, I'll call some radio station and apologize. If they lose in the first round, although it wasn't a big deal what I said, then they need to say something to me."- Mark Buehrle (September 21, 2004) The Twins did not advance past the first round, losing 3 games to 1 against the New York Yankees.

The section "2005-present" is missing any discussion of the 2005 season when Buehrle was pivotal in leading the White Sox to the World Series Championship.

Correction on the no-hitter[edit]

Prior to Buehrle, Joe Horlen didn't pitch the last no-hitter in Chicago, or even the last one in a White Sox home game—just the last one by a White Sox in a Sox home game. Since Horlen's no-hitter, three Chicago Cubs pitchers—Ken Holtzman, Burt Hooton and Milt Pappas—had pitched no-hitters at Wrigley Field; the last no-hitter pitched in Chicago was by Detroit Tiger pitcher Jack Morris at the old Comiskey Park in 1984.

Career highlights section[edit]

Should his home run against the Brewers really be mentioned there? I don't consider a pitcher's home run that spectacular compared to the other achievements in the box. --FeinerMax (talk) 23:05, 7 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
