Re: 4/18 - 5/1 Game Discussion Thread

Was that the most exciting ending to a 16-0 game in MLB history?

Well there was an 18-0 no-hitter back in the old old days so...no

I love MLB Network though, got to see the final inning. There was one pitch he threw that was definitely the 3rd strike to end the game yet the ump called it a ball. If he had lost it based on that I bet there would be a lot of gnashing of teeth.

Soooo, it is? 18-0 is not 16-0

He only has 12 more teams in the NL to no hit (notwithstanding his own). Then what? AL teams? lol

Re: 4/18 - 5/1 Game Discussion Thread

2nd No-No in 11 regular season starts, and ended the longest team hit streak in baseball.

It's weird. The Cubs are so much fun to watch now.

2nd straight game in which the Orioles winning run has scored via passed ball. Because baseball.

Hicks sure is making a name for himself with his glove in left. 2 great plays tonight.

Hats off to the O's these are the kind of wins they were getting a couple years ago. The starting pitchers need to pitch deeper into ball games though or I could see this team fading down the stretch.

A's with another road sweep. Undefeated on the road so far.

The Sanchez/Gray matchup tomorrow is going to be a helluva pitchers duel IMO.

Re: 4/18 - 5/1 Game Discussion Thread

This is just silly

In his past 119⅓ innings, Arrieta has allowed seven earned runs.

And 3 of those came in his 2nd start this season.

I can't get enough of the video that this pic comes from, lol. Check out this Deadspin article.




Normally I think a fan entering the field of play is about the dumbest thing (relatively) a fan can do. But here, something about this guy's sheer, involuntary joy is infectious. Doesn't seem like he's going for attention and he's clearly not a threat. I can't stop laughing.
