Drew Smyly pitched seven perfect innings Friday in the Chicago Cubs’ 13-0 win against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Wrigley Field.
“It was an aggressive play,” Gomes . “Both of us went after it. It came to the point where both of us wanted it. He got to it before I did. I’m not as quick as I used to be getting out of the way, and I ended up riding him and becoming a cool picture.”
If not for the hit, Cubs manager David Ross said he was ready to let Smyly finish off the perfect game, no matter his rising pitch count.
