- Start date
Astros leading the Blue Jays 10-0 heading into 8th. Ronel Blanco gave up a walk to start the game but has been pretty, pretty good since.
He did it! Only one walk, too.
Blanco had never pitched more than 6 innings in a game in his pro career before tonight (8 starts). Pretty crazy.

No hitter completed! George Springer walks with 2 outs in the 9th and Vladdy Jr. makes the last out.
He only walked George Springer…. To lead off the game and again with 2 outs in the 9th.
Mets are trying to lose a game they led going into the 8th AND get no-hit on the same day.
Edit: a combined no-hitter. Manning was removed with 2 outs in 6th.

LOLOL
SNY, the Mets broadcast, in the 8th inning of a game they are getting no-hit in... just put up an overlay of how much the Tigers have been struggling as a team over the last decade.
Awesome.

Will there ever be another no no? I mean, there will barely even be any complete games this year.
I know there will be some CGs. There were like 35 last year. There are guys who can throw them. Alcantara, Eovaldi. I'm not saying there will be none. But I doubt that number is going up, and if anything it is likely to go down.
The chances of a no no when we're looking at like one complete game a week starts to get pretty low. I guess a guy is more likely to be kept in the game if he's working on a no hitter. I just think it's going to be more and more rare.
Right -- I got it. You missed the follow up post where I admitted to being a moron.
I think the reason you might have missed it was that I posted it in the Dune Part 2 thread, though. Proving the point.
Hahaha, that made me laugh.
Your general point is certainly correct, just a funny time to make it three days after one actually happened. The Blue Jays just set an alltime franchise record for fewest hits in a 3 game series with 9 (0, 8, 1), there are a lot of teams out there having trouble hitting right now.

When it comes to the Mets, nobody does losing quite like they do. Impressive stuff.
Very kind of you -- but I botched that one. Yeah, decreases in hitting especially in the colder parts of the season could contribute to letting starters go longer I think. And of course there's the As. After watching them for 3 days, they seem like a potential no hitter candidate every time they take the field.

Over.
Wild though. He is at 86 pitches right now. Not sure if he would have been able to make it through 9.

Wheeler through 6 in Philly versus the ChiSox. But he's at 85 pitches, so he's probably not finishing it.
After what happened with Lorenzen, who was terrible after his no-hitter, I would not risk Wheeler if I were them. Let's say he gets through the eighth in 10-12 pitches. You almost have to let him start the ninth, and that's how you wind up with him throwing 130 pitches this early in the season.
