What do you think is the greatest game ever pitched???

[Ty Fast]

I got to go with Josh Beckett in the 2003 World Series vs the Yanks in game 6. He only gave up 5 hits and struck out 9 in that situation on the road in Yankee Stadium. What do you think the greatest game ever pitched was?

Cole Hamels last night.

[Yankees 1903]

You're really going to go with Josh Beckett in game 6?

I don't watch a lot of baseball outside of Blue Jays games and playoffs, so I'm drawing from a limited pool of experience here, but I would say that the Brandon Morrow game against the Rays in 2010 where he was 1 out away from a 17 strike-out perfect game was the most dominant I've ever see any pitcher.

I think it was Evan Longoria who got a weak infield single to second base, that Aaron Hill was unable to get cleanly, to break it up with 1 out to go in the ninth inning.

David Wells Perfect game vs the Twins
Pure dominance and perfection while sporting a massive hangover!

David Cone's perfect game vs the Expos
Pure dominance and perfection even though he had to sit for a while because of a rain delay during the game.

Jim Abbots No hitter vs the Indians
Not only because i was there but because the guy has one hand and he no hit an indians team that top to bottom was superior to any team in the history of baseball basketball football and rugsby

IIRC, he had two walks so not a perfect game

kerry woods 20K 1 hitter with the cubs

Yeah, you're right. My mistake.

[americaspasttim]

kerry woods 20K 1 hitter with the cubs

...against an Astros team that had Jeff Bagwell, Craig Biggio, Moises Alou, and Derek Bell...

[Il Mago50]

Any start Brett Cecil has ever made for us, hes just a gem

[Nymfan87]

kerry woods 20K 1 hitter with the cubs

This is the best answer.

I heard about this game a few days ago on TV. Future Hall of Famers Juan Marichal and 42 year old Warren Spahn were scoreless through 15 innings. Marichal pitched a scorless 16th, while Spahn gave a solo HR to Willie Mays in the bottom. No pushover lineups either, as SF had HoFers Orlando Cepeda and Willie McCovey in addition to Mays, and Milwaukee had HoFers Hank Aaron and Eddie Matthews.

Well my favorite was Stephen Strasburg's major league debut.

Kerry Wood's 20 K game.

Kerry Wood's 20 K game was probably the best pitched game.
