Grambling State utility player Shemar Page completed one of baseball’s rarest feats by tossing a perfect game in a 16-0 win over Alcorn State Friday night.
Page, a graduate student who currently ranks in the top 10 in the NCAA in strikeouts with 98, fanned 13 more during the historic outing against the Braves over seven innings.
“Won’t EVER forget this one,” Page tweeted after the game. “Thank you Grambling State.”
