MLB Network is showing classic baseball games

[fan_since79]

on now: Kerry Wood's 20-Strikeout game on this date in May, 1998.

Yesterday I watched two perfect games. Felix Hernandez and Matt Cain, from 2012.

There is an upside to not having live baseball.

 Are you aware that you can watch those games on YouTube at any time?

Right, but there are extra features. Interviews, background etc.

I know there are a lot of Bob Costas detractors but I think he's great.

In Canada they replayed all the Blue Jays 1992 and 1993 series games. Plus a bunch more of that team. They finally got around to some Expos games.

They showed Vlady's 40th homer game as an Expo, McGuire's 70th home run, David Cone's perfect game. As well, Dennis Martinez' perfect game  in Dodger Stadium, Pedro Martinez' near perfect game (9 inning plus) and Tim Raines late career return to the franchise. Hopefully a few more are dug out. 

I'd love to see Bill Stoneman's two no hitters, but doubt they have complete footage from the seventies.

The most improbable perfect game was perhaps Philip Humber's. A journeyman (and not very good) pitcher had one transcendent moment in 2012 and was soon gone from baseball. I wonder if they'll show that one.
