Miami Marlins pitcher Eury Pérez is one of the story lines in a Sunday matchup against the Oakland Athletics, where he extends a bid for a perfect game into the later stages. Multiple reports say Pérez has not allowed a baserunner through six innings, retiring all 18 batters he faces while striking out seven. Through that span, he has thrown 83 pitches, including 50 for strikes. The reports also note that Pérez, 23, has not previously thrown a complete game in his major league career. Another update says the bid continues into the seventh inning, with Pérez removed after throwing seven perfect innings against the Athletics. The Marlins’ history is also highlighted: the franchise has not recorded a perfect game in its 33-year history.
