Tigers' Brieske and Hurter combine for perfect game through 6 innings against
Orioles
DETROIT (AP) --- Detroit pitchers Beau Brieske and Brant Hurter are throwing a
combined perfect game through six innings against the Baltimore Orioles, and
the Tigers led 1-0 on Friday night.
Brieske, a 26-year-old right-hander, was planned to start as an opener and
retired four batters while throwing 11 of 16 pitches for strikes.
Hunter, a 26-year-old rookie left-hander, started his first 14 batters with
strikes. He struck out seven through 4 2/3 innings while throwing 40 of 50
pitches for strikes.
The closest Baltimore came to a hit was Ryan O'Hearn's fifth-inning soft line
drive down the left-field line that landed inches foul.
There have been 24 perfect games, all complete games.
