David Cone of the New York Yankees tosses the 16th perfect game in MLB history, blanking the Montreal Expos 6-0 at Yankee Stadium. It is the third Perfect Game by the Yankees setting an MLB record. It is also the first No-Hitter thrown in an interleague game and thus far the only Perfect Game. Cone had ten strikeouts while pitching with impeccable control. The Perfect Game came on a day in which the Yankees honored Yogi Berra.
