The right-hander entered Sunday 0-5 with a 6.99 ERA over his past five starts, but he mesmerized the Tigers. Gonzalez went 3-0 on the first batter of the game, Romine, but had only four three-ball counts before the perfect game was broken up. Gonzalez allowed three runs on six hits while striking out six and walking none in 7 2/3 innings.
Phil Humber was the last White Sox hurler to throw a no-hitter, which also was a perfect game, on April 21, 2012, in Seattle. Mark Buehrle was perfect against Tampa Bay on July 23, 2009, which was the last White Sox perfect game at home.
