Oh, that one game when Seattle Mariners pitcher Félix Hernández hit a Grand Slam off Mets ace Johan Santan.

In honor of 3/4 today, we are celebrating the career of #34, Félix Hernández:
🔱 Cy Young Award Winner (2010)
🔱 6x AL All-Star (2009, 2011-15)
🔱 Perfect Game (8/15/12 vs. TB)
🔱 2x Cy Young Award Runner-Up (2009 & 2014)
🔱 @Mariners Hall of Famer (2023)
Here is a thread of some fun articles from throughout King Félix's Hall of Fame-worthy career:
@GovBobFerguson Why not focus on making this State better by lowering taxes, invest in our youth education and public safety, fix the roads they suck, fix our homeless problem, we can do better…Lastly, we can be the role model state…DYJG…🏹
Félix Hernández threw the 23rd perfect game in @MLB history on August 15, 2012.
