Braden's perfect game occurred on May 9, 2010 which was also Mother's Day - a holiday he resented due to the death of his mother from melanoma. Braden pulled through and finished the game without letting any batter reach base. Right after, there was a touching moment where he hugged his grandma, Peggy Lindsey, who looked after him when his mom died. They celebrated on the field, and he even kissed the medallion he was wearing, making the day unforgettable to them and anyone watching. #dallasbraden #sports #mlb #oaklandas #dallasbradenperfectgame #baseball #oaklandathletics #sportsfans #bellagiohenrold
