    Correct.

    I assume a lot of people picked Pierzynski, thinking he caught both Buehrle and Phil Humber. But Ramon Castro caught Buehrle's perfect game, because it was a day game after a night game. (Which I think Humber's was, too, but for some reason Pierzynski caught that day.)

    Santonio Holmes was the other No. 10. Rypien wore No. 11.
