Perfect Game Baby

There have only been 23 perfect games pitched in the history of major league baseball.

13-month Bode Dockal has only been to two major leagues baseball game in his entire life.

Both games he attended were perfect games!

This incredible story is at mlb.com, "What are the odds of seeing a perfecto in both of your first two major league games?

There have been only 23 perfect games thrown in nearly a century and a half of Major League history. Two of them were the first two games Bode Dockal ever attended in person. Paul (his father) said that, in a way, he wishes his son would never attend another game – nothing could top what he’s already seen. But he knows Bode will have to relive the magic of Humber and Felix through photos and stories rather than actual recollections. Plus, someday decades from now, Bode might walk through the gates of a stadium with a son of his own.

And on that day, perfection just might strike a third time.

Another example of why reality is always stranger than fiction and also why you should never say never.
