Randy Johnson through seven innings against Atlanta. Man, the Braves can't hit anything.

He's through 8!

HE GOT IT!!! Perfect game for Randy Johnson in a 2-0 win over the Braves.

First Ben Sheets, now RJ. Sign me up to pitch against the Braves. :D

From one of the best offensive units last year to what is becoming one of the worst.

Thanks go out to the DL and free agency. :D

Are you kidding me?!?!?!? The two best pitched games of the season come in back-to-back days against the same team?!?!? UNBE-FREAKING-LEIVABLE!

BTW, one thing that kind of bothered me was all the Braves fans cheering on Johnson in the ninth. Don't get me wrong, it's a great accomplishment and all, but we're getting humiliated for the second game in a row, and the Braves fans are rooting Johnson on! I'm ticked off about it.

Well, those are two great pitchers, but our offense is lousy.

True, you never want to see your team beaten like that. But a perfect game is an incredible acheivement and anyone who tosses one deserves to be cheered on, whether at home or on the road, IMO.

I remember watching Nolan Ryan's 6th no-hitter against the A's. The Oakland fans realized they were watching a legend at work, and they really got into it in the 9th. Same thing was probably going on at Turner tonight.

Jason Schmidt- Complete game one hit shutout. the one hit was an infield hit. only one BB and 13 K's. Unfortunately, Alou let him throw 144 pitches.

i agree. when he struck out perez, the whole stadium went crazy. if it were my team, i definitely wouldnt've clapped.

Though the Braves fans, aren't exactly the best fans.

if you had a chance to go see a perfect game thrown against your team, would you want to??

Sure. Not likeyour team is never going to lose another game. Perfect games are few and far between.

I feel bad for him. Best game of his life, and nobody notices.
