I've never heard one person say that was the best pitched game ever. http://espn.go.com/blog/sweetspot/post/_/id/24585/kerry-wood-and-the-greatest-game-pitched http://cityonthetake.com/the-kerry-wood-20-strikeouts-game-is-greatest-pitched-game-ever/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_score Now you have. One of the greatest pitching performances of all time? Yes. It was awesome. It's in the team picture, but Don Larsen, Roger Clemens, Bob Gibson, Nolan Ryan & Sandy Koufax among others all have games that could be called "one of the greatest". For me, if you pitch a perfect game in the World Series, that's pretty damn hard to beat. I think this is a case where statistics, era and opinion can be used to make the argument for several games. there have been 27 perfect games, 287 no-hitters, and exactly 4 instances where a single pitcher has struck out 20 hitters in 9 innings pitched. of those, kerry wood's is the most remarkable of them all. all of those pitchers have great moments, none of them pitched as good a game as kerry wood on 5/6/1998
