Parra Throws Perfect Game for Nashville

Former top pitching prospect, LHP Manny Parra, throws a perfect game for AAA Nashville Sounds. Making his second start at AAA, Parra struck out 11 and threw 77 of his 107 pitches for strikes against the Express, a Houston Astros affiliate.

The 24-year-old Parra was picked by the Brewers in the 26th round of the 2001 draft. The left-hander went 11-2 with a 2.73 ERA for Class-A Beloit in 2003, but had season-ending rotator cuff surgery in August 2005.

Parra attended American River Junior College in Sacramento, Calif., and was chosen the 2002 National Junior College Player of the Year by Baseball America.
