Turner joins Jo-Jo Weslosky (1963) as the only other tee-baller to pull off a perfecto in the adorable history of the sport.

The five-year-old knew something special was going to happen the moment he took the mound and hurled his arm toward the batter with nothing in his hand but thin air and Dorito crumbs.

“Coach said to be like the White Sock guy,” Turner said after the game. “So I throwed it in there about five trillion miles-a-power and I did good.”
