    It was Charlie Robertson of the White Sox, and he beat the Tigers.

    The only thing I can think about it being different is that it was the first perfect game pitched on the road, but I doubt that’s what you’re looking for.

    Rocco is correct – I did edit mine, but I didn’t copy from him….if you want to give him the ten points, feel free.

    1st to throw a perfect game on the road

    Just to let you know. I had the first road game perfect game comment before Craig S did and he edited it so it shows that he did before me. I had it first, if that is what you’re looking for anyways.
