First Perfect Game in Giants History

      Giants Pitcher Matt Cain made history for the San Francisco Giants last night, June 13, 2012, as he pitched a perfect game in their defeat of the Houston Astros in San Francisco.
     Cain struck out 14, his career high, and his outfielders helped with two spectacular catches. With eight years in the Giants franchise, he has the longest tenure on the team.  He signed a 6 year contract renewal in April.
     This is just the 22nd perfect game in major league baseball history (including postseason), and it tied Sandy Koufax's record for strikeouts in a perfect game.
