For the second time this season, Yu Darvish of the Rangers flirts with a perfect game against the Astros. He retires the first 17 batters and he and C A.J. Pierzynski think they have struck out Jonathan Villar looking to end the 6th inning, but umpire Ron Kulpa calls the pitch a ball and Villar eventually draws a walk to break up the perfecto. An incensed Pierzynski tells the umpire what he thinks of his call and is ejected. Darvish allows his first and only hit, a solo homer by Carlos Corporan, with one out in the 8th. He strikes out a career-high 15 batters in 8 innings in the 2 – 1 win, with Joe Nathan pitching a hitless 9th for the save.
