Just snagged this one. Greatest game ever pitched. Kerry Woods 5th start and he gets a complete game, 20 strikeout, 1 hit shutout. And does it against the Astros who would win 102 games! According to Bill James' pitching "Game Score" system it rates a 105 with none higher. The only hit he gave up was an infield hit. the highest possible game score would be a 114. That would be a 27strikeout complete Perfect Game.

Game Score is a metric devised by Bill James to determine the strength of a pitcher in any particular baseball game. To determine a starting pitcher's game score:

Start with 50 points.
Add one point for each out recorded, so three points for every complete inning pitched.
Add two points for each inning completed after the fourth.
Add one point for each strikeout.
Subtract two points for each hit allowed.
Subtract four points for each earned run allowed.
Subtract two points for each unearned run allowed.
Subtract one point for each walk.
