Props to Mark Buehrle...

...for his perfect game this week, only the eighteenth in the history of Major League Baseball. When you consider that at least 16 teams have started at least 154 pitchers for at least a hundred years, that's almost 250,000 starting pitchers, conservatively. (I'm too lazy to do the precise math.) That's a heck of an accomplishment! Even a die-hard Cubs fan like me has to face the South Side and tip his cap.
