Guest Trivia Answer:
First, thanks to Dan Hyde for the guest trivia question!

Former Owl pitcher Philip Humber was drafted by 2 major league franchises in the same city.  He was drafted in the 29th round (875 overall) by the Yankees in 2001 and in the first round (3 overall) by the Mets in 2004.  (Thanks, Joe Graves and Mike Ross!).

Wednesday marked the ninth anniversary of the perfect game thrown by Philip in the major leagues on April 21, 2012.  Click here for a recent Tyler Morning Telegraph story where he reflects on the perfect game and his career.
