Outstanding in Any League

A youngster in Japan pitched about as perfect as one can pitch:

Pitching phenom Roki Sasaki had 19 strikeouts while throwing a perfect game in a record-setting performance Sunday in Japan’s top professional league.

Sasaki, 20, recorded the first perfect game in Nippon Professional Baseball since 1994 and the 16th in league history, according to multiple Japanese media outlets.

His 19 K tied a record for a game, and his 13 K in row set a record. I hope he gets posted sooner than later! He was caught be an 18-year-old.
