sox fans are so lucky with stone/benetti

After decades of Hawk, they deserve it.

Van Horn Street, Thursday, 15 April 2021 02:50 (five years ago)

I do think it's the best commenting duo.

Van Horn Street, Thursday, 15 April 2021 02:51 (five years ago)

NO-HITTERED

, Thursday, 15 April 2021 02:52 (five years ago)

Really happy for Rodon.

At this pace we are going to have 30 no hitters this season.

Van Horn Street, Thursday, 15 April 2021 02:53 (five years ago)

Congrats Rodon
now let's move the mound back ;)

francisF, Thursday, 15 April 2021 02:54 (five years ago)

weird game, by my count 3 whiffs in the first 4 innings, 16 whiffs in the last 5

, Thursday, 15 April 2021 02:56 (five years ago)

so happy for rodon; still pissed about what his coach at nc state did to him

mookieproof, Thursday, 15 April 2021 03:05 (five years ago)

Could you fill a guy in?I haven’t heard about this.

basically they drove him into the ground for their own benefit, e.g. making him throw 134 pitches on short rest, from which his injury history may or may not stem

Jorge Lopez has struck out 8 in 4 no-hit innings, I know that's not that far but I'm not gonna have that many chances to say an Orioles starting pitcher is doing really well

Guayaquil (eephus!), Saturday, 17 April 2021 01:12 (five years ago)

Sorry, that was my fault (still a pretty decent start and gave the Orioles a good chance to win

Guayaquil (eephus!), Saturday, 17 April 2021 02:12 (five years ago)

)

Guayaquil (eephus!), Saturday, 17 April 2021 02:12 (five years ago)

(it's fine

tbh)

mookieproof, Saturday, 17 April 2021 02:57 (five years ago)

Because of a doubleheader, it’s only going to go 7 innings and thus can’t count as one. But through 5 Matz has only walked two.

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Saturday, 17 April 2021 19:37 (five years ago)

Well... it wasn’t gonna be official anyways.

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Saturday, 17 April 2021 19:54 (five years ago)

if it’s long enough to count as a game it’s long enough to count as a no-hitter imo

mookieproof, Saturday, 17 April 2021 21:05 (five years ago)

i was going to, in the official record books in my mind.

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Saturday, 17 April 2021 21:19 (five years ago)

if a pitcher throws 9 hitless innings and allows a hit in the 10th it’s not a no-hitter, so it follows that a complete-game 7-inning no-hitter IS a no-hitter

Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Saturday, 17 April 2021 21:31 (five years ago)

Give Madison Bumgarner a No-Hitter

mookieproof, Monday, 26 April 2021 06:06 (five years ago)

I will if he can no hit the first two innings of his next game.

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 26 April 2021 11:55 (five years ago)

i just assumed this thread was up so we could all sing the praises of john means.

j.q higgins, Monday, 26 April 2021 16:12 (five years ago)

i don't think girardi realizes zack wheeler allowed a hit cause he threw him out there for the 9th at 107 pitches

, Tuesday, 27 April 2021 02:00 (five years ago)

john means (business) through 8

mookieproof, Wednesday, 5 May 2021 21:54 (five years ago)

his only baserunner came on a strikeout with a passed ball.

reggae mike love (polyphonic), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 21:56 (five years ago)

Tuning in for the 9th. How did he get so good? I never thought of him as anything better than a #3 ish pitcher.

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 22:02 (five years ago)

nice. 26/27 first-pitch strikes, game score 99

mookieproof, Wednesday, 5 May 2021 22:06 (five years ago)

I hope eephus was watching

Michael F Gill, Wednesday, 5 May 2021 22:19 (five years ago)

damn – 52 years since the O's had a 9-inning no hitter! (Palmer obviously)

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 22:27 (five years ago)

I missed it!!! But it doesn't matter, my joy is pure.

Guayaquil (eephus!), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 23:18 (five years ago)

i saw him pitch at high a few years back and was totally unimpressed, but something clicked for him the following season.

anyways, a 99 gamescore is...pretty good. current rWAR for means is 2.3!

j.q higgins, Thursday, 6 May 2021 12:49 (five years ago)

Back in AA, there has been a Hunter Greene sighting. Dude threw 71 pitches and 37 were over 100+ mph. Supposedly the most in the statcast whatever radar era.

earlnash, Friday, 7 May 2021 02:30 (five years ago)

Good luck elbow.

Van Horn Street, Friday, 7 May 2021 02:43 (five years ago)

Oh probably no doubt there...Dr. Kremchek is going to add a deck on his house on that one.

earlnash, Friday, 7 May 2021 03:03 (five years ago)

wade miley's turn

reggae mike love (polyphonic), Saturday, 8 May 2021 02:53 (five years ago)

ok that one's in the books now it's sean manaea's turn

, Saturday, 8 May 2021 03:08 (five years ago)

This is nuts. Clevelanders twice in a month.

Van Horn Street, Saturday, 8 May 2021 03:10 (five years ago)

Has there been no hitters this close before?

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Saturday, 8 May 2021 04:23 (five years ago)

i'm super happy for wade miley but this is a sign of things gone wrong

mookieproof, Saturday, 8 May 2021 04:37 (five years ago)

(xpost) Dave Stewart (against the Jays) and Fernando both threw one on June 29, 1990.

No posts about Spencer Turnbull's no-hitter? I guess no-hitters are becoming routine these days!

NoTimeBeforeTime, Wednesday, 19 May 2021 06:52 (five years ago)

Was drifting off before the first pitch.

Andy K, Wednesday, 19 May 2021 10:01 (five years ago)

Turnbull?!

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 19 May 2021 12:10 (five years ago)

Trivia:

Kyle Seager has been in the winning team of a no hitter 4 times, including a perfecto. He also has been on the losing side of 5 no-hitters... including a perfect game. That’s the highest total of no-hitters participation in history. Five of those have been at home: combined, Hernandez, Iwakuma, Means and Turnbull (T-Mobile Park is ridiculous). Of note that of the remaining four, one was in Canada, the other in Mexico.

Van Horn Street, Wednesday, 19 May 2021 14:48 (five years ago)

a no hitter in Mexico?

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 19 May 2021 20:08 (five years ago)

Yeah the combined no-hitter by the Dodgers vs the Padres in Monterrey.

Van Horn Street, Wednesday, 19 May 2021 23:34 (five years ago)

DOWN IN MONTEREY
