Buehrle sets a record

OK, so it wasnt the big back to back perfect games or no hitter everybody was talking about, although he did get close to that. Buehrle had a perfect game through 5 2/3 innings. But then he walked a batter, then let up a hit, and then a run. So, he had nothing. But, he DID set a record.
Mark Buehrle retired 45 straight batters beating the old record of 41 batters set by Jim Barr back in 1972. I dont care what team you go for, you have to have respect for this guy.
