Dallas Braden’s Perfect Game Was Inferiorly Rewarded

by Jeff Sullivan

On Sunday afternoon, Dallas Braden threw a perfect game against the Tampa Bay Rays and celebrated by hugging his grandmother. He will earn $420,000 in salary this season.

A couple months ago, Wade McGilberry threw a perfect game with Kenshin Kawakami in MLB2K10, and after his accomplishment was verified by 2K Sports, McGilberry was awarded a $1,000,000 prize.
