With so many "serious" threads on the forums these days, I thought it might be fun to have a thread that was more of a lighter note.

Have you ever been the victim of a no-hitter or perfect game?

I personally have not. I've been close, but have always managed to break it up.

And please, please, please, do not clutter this thread with issues with the game. There are plenty of threads to discuss those. Let's just discuss times we were no-hit, had a perfecto thrown against us, or times we broke them up.

Thanks.

Sorry for double post, but I thought I'd discuss my most recent flirtation with a no-no.

Facing Stephen Strasburg, who's with the Rangers in my franchise, and he carried a no-no into the 7th inning, before Randal Grichuk smacked a single into left field to break up the no hitter bid and extend his hitting streak to 6 games. We managed only one other hit on the night, which was a double by Magnerrius Sierra in the 8th. Needless to say, we lost the game 4-0 and Strasburg did get the complete game shutout.

Perfect game thrown against me by Lance Lynn. I wouldn't have minded so much except that this was back in 14 where if a CPU outfielder could make the catch, 99.9% of the time they would. Half of my outs were on line drives into the gap that the outfielders laid out for and caught every... single... time...

Took a few days break from the show after that game.

Edit: dang, I was about to make a for fun post too. Would it be wrong to flood the forums? jk I'll save mine for later.

I was the victim of a perfect game in '12. Kershaw was just brilliant and I could not do anything with him. I just dug out my old notebook from that year. I struck out 12 times and 7 fly balls and the rest infield grounders. Kershaw threw 112 pitches that day.

Neither against me yet, knock on wood. Closest I've come to either is being one hit by Scherzer.

EDIT: This is not counting DD Conquest games that are only 3 innings long. I've played a few of those and been no-hit.

Once. I always target Madbum in any franchise or season cause I just seem to pitch well with him. Always have. I decided I should try a exhibition game against the giants and of course Madbum no hits me. I got 1 walk and that saved me from the perfect game. Gross.

I cant remember a certain time but im sure its happened. I know last year when the game first came out the CPU had one and I bunted in 9th with Jarrod Dyson to end it.

Dickey got me a few years ago when he was a Met. Couldn't square up that knuckleball at all.
