Drew Smyly Loses A Perfect Game In A Brutally Painful Fashion

For 7 innings Drew Smyly was literally perfect. On a perfect day, and in front of his home crowd on a Friday afternoon. Literally perfect… until he wasn’t . 

I always hate when perfect games or no hitters end on a wacky play or a bullshit call like Armando Galarraga . This was brutal to watch because it was barely a hit, a little dribbler and even if Smyly could make a throw in time it just happens that the catcher jumps on his back because he was busting his ass from behind the plate to make a play. Pain on two levels. Awful break for Smyly and Cubs fans who could have witnessed history. Hate that shit as a fan.
