14 Years Ago Today....

...David Cone pitched what had to be the most economical perfect game ever, with only 88 pitches. I can still see pitch after pitch sailing from 3 to 8, with helpless batters offering only weak miss after miss after miss. But of course what made the game truly magical was the fact that it happened to be Yogi Berra Day at The Stadium, and none other than Don Larsen threw out the first pitch. It was one of those spine-tingling moments in sports, and I'm glad I got to see all 88 pitches (on tv, of course.)
