A Thread For Starting Pitchers That Are Doing Really Well

looks like hamstring to me

i was misled

i love that out of the 2-3 baseball facts my gf knows, the possibility that someone pitching a perfect game could be on acid is one of them

you are a lucky man

Turned out Lowe had a blister on his right foot.

dude could never play hockey

verlander is perfect thru 7, gallardo no hitter thru 7

Verlander has faced the minimum through seven.

i do not like justin verlander

gallardo otoh is cool w/ me

allowing a hit to daniel descalso: adding insult to injury

some serious drama here in the 8th inning

aw

this arenciba ab is a+

LOL

still facing the minimum no-hitter w/ the double play

VERLANDIA

much more impressive no-hitter than the last one

first time i rooted against a no hitter since dallas braden

does it mean anything that the tigers scored 9 runs on 11 hits

it means they won

other than they won by a lot xp lol

much more impressive no-hitter than the last one

unless you care that the jays' line up today was sub-major league

"they may have run the kentucky derby today, but the detroit horse...was number one", says one of the detroit announcers.

every day now huh..

annibal sanchez thru 6

altho honestly is livan the best hitter in this lineup y/n

R Bernadina CF
I Desmond SS
L Nix RF
A LaRoche 1B
M Morse LF
J Hairston Jr. 3B
I Rodriguez C
D Espinosa 2B
L Hernandez P

oh well

tbh, announcing at 6 seems a little early to me. it gets exciting at 7 imho.

have there been way more "starting pithers that are doing very well" this year? regardless of whether you put that at 6 or 7, or 8 or whatever? it seems like noticeably more this year...

the marlins have already taken a no hitter into the 7th four separate times

average runs per game definitely seems lowerish (around 4 i think) than normal

good article (nb from last year) about trend in pitching dominance: http://students.com.miami.edu/netreporting/?page_id=1266

verlander no hit through 4 or 13 :/

“When I eventually told them that, yes, a perfect game is ultimately more impressive, they said, ‘Have you ever tried doing that?’” Verlander continued. “I love them like crazy, but sometimes I don’t know why I bother trying to share my life with them.”

The guy pitching in place of sore-shouldered Liriano through seven.

Three hits between the Angels and Twins through nine, btw.

Derek Lowe through six, hopefully sans blister this time.

Verlander has faced the minimum through seven.
