New York Yankees starting pitcher Michael Pineda was flawless on Monday against the Rays, going perfect through almost seven innings. However, Martha Stewart might have jinxed Pineda’s date with history.

Just as soon as the tweet was posted, Pineda gave up his first hit of the ballgame. Now obviously Martha Stewart isn’t to blame for the occurrence, but I guess she doesn’t know the unwritten rule of baseball to never talk about a perfect game or no-hitter.
