Mr. Perfect: Danett Tosses Rare Gem
Tuesday, May 4th , 1999
With the final, flawless out recorded, the 1 Berserkers piled onto Frank Danett at the center of the Berserkers Grounds diamond. Danett joined baseball's most hallowed club, completing a perfect game against the 8 Generals.
The 18-year-old right-hander kept the 8 offense guessing all day long and with some help from the defenders behind him, etched his name into the record books with the 1-0 shutout.
"His breaking pitches had more movement than I've ever seen from Frank," 1 manager said in the postgame interview. "He made everyone's job easy today. He just saw a target and he hit it. Simple as that."
For the game, Danett retired all 27 batters he faced and fanned 8 of them. He walked none and nobody got on base.
