David Wells' perfect game
On May 17, 1998, David Wells of the New York Yankees pitched the 15th perfect game (no opposing batters reach first base) in Major League Baseball history and the second in team history. Pitching against the Minnesota Twins at Yankee Stadium in The Bronx in front of 49,820 fans in attendance, Wells retired all 27 batters he faced.〔http://articles.nydailynews.com/1998-05-19/news/18062843_1_bronx-bombers-yankee-stadium-attendance〕 The game took 2 hours and 40 minutes to complete, from 1:36 PM ET to 4:16 PM ET. Wells claimed that he threw the perfect game while being hung over.
Wells' perfect game was the 245th no-hitter in MLB history, and the tenth no-hitter in Yankees history. It was the first regular-season perfect game pitched by a Yankee; the franchise's previous perfect game was thrown by Don Larsen during the 1956 World Series. By coincidence, Wells graduated from the same high school as Larsen - Point Loma High School in San Diego, California. The previous perfect game in MLB history was nearly four years prior, when Kenny Rogers of the Texas Rangers pitched a perfect game against the California Angels at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington on July 28, 1994.
Well's perfect game was the first Yankee no-hitter since Dwight Gooden's against the Seattle Mariners in May 1996. Wells' performance tied the record for franchises with most perfect games. At the time, the Cleveland Indians were the only other team to have two perfect games; David Cone would add a third perfect game to Yankees history, breaking the record in July 1999.
