I love this game, but you have to wonder sometimes. I just played the 9-17 Cubs-Reds game in my replay of the 1954 season in which Cubs lefty Paul Minner pitched a perfect game: 27 up, 27 down--no runs, hits, walks, hit batsmen, errors! But the Game Recap merely congratulated him on his no-hitter. No-hitters are relatively common in MLB, there being roughly 2-4 every season. Perfectos? Not so much.

Oh, and Minner hit a solo homer in his first AB in the Cubs 7-0 victory. But what part of a perfect game doesn't the AI (or whatever) understand? What's so hard about detecting that?

I'm guess I'm more amused than annoyed. Anyone else encounter such a head-scratcher?:
