The Chicago left-hander retires the first 21 Dodgers before David Peralta’s broken-bat infield single in the eighth is the Dodgers’ only hit in a 13-0 loss
CHICAGO – It was a nearly perfect afternoon of baseball at Wrigley Field.
What would have been the 24th perfect game in baseball history and the first since Felix Hernandez’s in 2012 ended in a most imperfect way. A pair of ninth-inning walks against Cubs reliever Jeremiah Estrada were the Dodgers’ only other baserunners. The 33-year old Smyly used just two pitches – a knuckle curve and a cut fastball that averaged 91 mph – but he struck out 10, including six in a row at one point. Peralta’s perfection-breaker left his broken bat at 32.9 mph, appropriate to the procession of weak contact the Dodgers managed all afternoon.
