This Day in Baseball History: July 28, 1991

July 28, 1991



                It was on this day in 1991 that pitcher Dennis Martinez, threw a perfect game for the Montreal Expos against the Los Angeles Dodgers in Dodger Stadium. It was the first and only perfect game in Expos history as the team moved to Washington at the end of the 2004 season. The Expos won the game 2-0.
                   Expos’ catcher, Ron Hassey, became the first catcher in Major League history to catch two perfect games. His first was for Len Barker of the Cleveland Indians against the Toronto Blue Jays on May 15, 1981.
