New Format/Perfect Gamers

So with the issues that I appear to be having writing articles about specific topics each day, I'll be writing on different topics each day, with no set list of topics.

This year in baseball could prove to be an historic one.  Already, two perfect games have been pitched within a matter of three weeks and a third perfecto was stolen from Armando Galarraga last night.  The announcers' reactions in this clip express the disbelief and amazement felt by all at the poor call.

However, it appears as though Bud Selig will be changing the call and this could be the catalyst for instant replay in baseball.  The true major American sports already contain some sort of replay. 

Another interesting note comes from the Florida Marlins, now selling tickets to last week's perfect game pitched by Roy Halladay.  Want to be included in the attendance for the 20th perfect game ever?  They may still be available.

Finally, let's consider the occurrences within the MLB over the last month.  In a matter of a month, two (probably three) perfect games have been pitched.  In the previous 100 plus years, this happened only eighteen times (and only once has it happened twice in a season).
