Memphis's Lacayo Tosses Perfect Game
So rare that it is more a figment of the imagination than an actual possibility for a professional ballplayer, the near-mythical perfect game became reality for Antonio Lacayo today.

The Memphis Redbirds left-hander dominated the Iowa Cubs at AutoZone Park, securing the 26-0 Redbirds victory and a place for himself in the history books.

"As a kid I imagined pitching a perfect game, but it was only a fairy tale -- I didn't really ever expect to pitch one," Lacayo said later, sitting in the clubhouse with a crowd of reporters. "I don't want to demean it, but I've lost games where I had better stuff than I had today. It all just fell into place in this one."

The 22-year-old Lacayo retired all 27 Cubs batters in a row. He surrendered no hits, walked none, struck out 16 and permitted no one to get on base.

This year Lacayo has posted a record of 5 wins and 1 loss with a 2.17 ERA. He has appeared in 8 games and struck out 63 in 58 innings.
