Philip Humber went from a back-of-the-rotation afterthought on the Chicago White Sox to a highly recognized, late-night-TV-guesting D List celebrity overnight by becoming the 21st player in baseball history to throw a perfect game on Saturday against the Seattle Mariners. The biggest perk of Humber's accomplishment? Earning him some dap from a pair of SEO-friendly celebrities this weekend: model Kate Upton and New York Jets quarterback Tim Tebow.
Tweets embedded for totally shameless reasons, following the jump.
Upton:
Congrats to @Philip_Humber of the White Sox for getting into the Perfect Club. Looking forward to fitting your jacket! #2ksports hah
