Pssssssssssssst 2016 edition

[soxhop411]

Verlander thru 5

 

[Average Reds]

The curse of soxhop strikes early in 2016.

 

[trekfan55]

Where's the "that escalated quickly" GIF?

3 hits and 3 runs in the 6th

 

[Brand Name]

Stripling for LA through 6, at San Francisco, in his MLB debut. If it holds up another 3 innings, he'd be the first in the modern era to do so; second all time after Bumpus Jones in 1892.

 

[canderson]

Through 7, but he's losing control quickly it seems.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Through 7 with 91 pitches. This is going to be tricky

 

[Sox and Rocks]

Hard to see him finishing it after that inning

 

[trekfan55]

7 now

 

[Bergs]

I'm laughing my ass off at Jon Miller referring to the no-hitter every other pitch.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

I'm laughing my ass off at Jon Miller referring to the no-hitter every other pitch.

The Dodgers guys are talking about it too

 

[Bergs]

I don't know who Jon Miller's partner is, but he actually said "I don't know what's more impressive, a no-hitter in his debut or in his first game"

 

[Papelbon's Poutine]

Didn't know Tom McCarver had a kid in broadcasting.

 

[budcrew08]

Puig on the first out of the eighth

 

[Bergs]

Heh. Or Tim, either.

 

[Sox and Rocks]

Good move by Roberts. Kid was gassed

 

[budcrew08]

If it's going to happen, it'll be a combined effort

 

[Bergs]

Lots of typos. I assume we're all drunk?

[emoji106]

 

[Bergs]

Wow.

 

[PseuFighter]

holy shit.

 

[PseuFighter]

if it's any consolation, he was safe by like a foot.

 

[Bergs]

This has 15-inning epic written all over it.

 

[soxhop411]

“@SteveMasonESPN: Dave Roberts did NOT make that decision. He was told 100 pitches. 4th ball was pitch #100. The front office dictated that move. #Dodgers”

 

[Sox and Rocks]

“@SteveMasonESPN: Dave Roberts did NOT make that decision. He was told 100 pitches. 4th ball was pitch #100. The front office dictated that move. #Dodgers”

Whoever made it, it was the right call. He was clearly tiring and probably would have given up a hit anyway. The long term risk isn't worth it.

 

[Al Zarilla]

I don't know who Jon Miller's partner is, but he actually said "I don't know what's more impressive, a no-hitter in his debut or in his first game"

Must have been Mike Krukow. I was watching and missed that particular gaffe. Krukow is one of the best color men though.

 

[Lowrielicious]

Neat little graphic on mlb app that I hadn't noticed before.

Finnegan through 5. Pitch count getting up there, at 76 already.




Edit: pitches around an error, still going after 6. 92 pitches.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

He walked Lester. That's a waste of pitches.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

And old friend D. Ross wrecks it

 

[daveuk]

Arrieta thru 6.
Walked 3. Leads Reds 9-0

David Ross solo HR, Rizzo 3 run blast.

 

[Wingack]

At 85 pitches though.

 

[daveuk]

Yep 85. With the help of a DP to end the 6th.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

8 pitch 7th helps his cause considerably

 

[LogansDad]

Through 8.

This Arrieta guy is an okay pitcher.

 

[CodPiece XL]

And to the 9th he goes

 

[staz]

Last pitcher to no-hit CIN was old friend Rick Wise in 1971.

 

[Wingack]

Through 8.

This Arrieta guy is an okay pitcher.

Best pitcher in the game?

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Best pitcher in the game?

I think I heard them say he has 23 straight quality starts.

 

[canderson]

Cubs also up 16-0 now. Boston should get a GM like the guy that's built up the Cubs.

 

[Wingack]

I think I heard them say he has 23 straight quality starts.

An ERA of .58 since his last no-hitter 10 starts ago.

 

[LogansDad]

Best pitcher in the game?

I think there is probably a good argument for that.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Down 16-0, 2 outs in the 9th.....BUNT!!

 

[staz]

With firstbaseman playing back, drag bunt?

/ducks

 

[LogansDad]

That's a strike, blue!

 

[Wingack]

That pitch looked good.

 

[staz]

Good for Ross.

 

[Jordu]

Good for Ross.

 

[LogansDad]

Awesome.

Some random fan got to give him a hug then get arrested.

 

[canderson]

A fan joined the celebration LOLOL

 

[Wingack]

I bet he throws another one before the year is out.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Remember O's fans, you gave up on this guy
