Delete the sources are either from local news reports or stat references, none of which confer notability.White Siddiqah (talk) 15:04, 8 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Consensus is that minor league perfect games don't rate standalone articles. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:50, 8 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I don't see any independent coverage, which suggests NPOV issues may arise. While I imagine there was local coverage at the time, without continuing coverage, it seems this would be better discussed (as it is) in the article about the pitcher. Much of the content is not terribly encyclopedic (why should an encyclopedia include the game-day roster of two minor league teams for a game known only for the success of one player). The encyclopedic content (if it is so) already exists so no merge is necessary. Smmurphy^(Talk) 00:46, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Tom Rogers (baseball), where this is already covered, and possibly merge some content if desired. ---- Patar knight - ^chat/_{contributions} 16:11, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
REdirect -- I cannot believe we need a separate article on a single match a century ago. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:03, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
