    Poor Mark Buerhle. The guy pitches a perfect game, but all the media wants to talk about is the catch.

    I just did a search to see who it was who convinced me years ago that Buehrle could be a HOFer. It was Steel.
    Johnny Vander Meer?

    *edit: sorry for the slow response. i caught the explanation.
    How do we know he's not Mel Torme?

    If you made $14M a year like Buehrle does, what would you get for DeWayne who makes 550K? I'd buy him either a car or a watch thats >$20K.
