but Trachsel pitched better! HE GAVE UP HALF AS MANY HITS!
anyone see WGN rerun the 9th of Jim Maloney's no hitter vs the Cubs in '65, a few weeks ago during a rain delay? The guy walked TEN and threw something like 190 pitches!

Back then, you didn't know whether you'd HAVE your throwing arm the next day -- lost to the combine out on the back forty, or combat, or what have you. You just threw like hell, left everything out there on the mound.

daniel cabrera, the consecutive reigning AL walks champion, pitched his third game WITHOUT issuing a walk this season last night. his three-peat is in peril as he has now tumbled out of the top ten on the heels of his 8th straight quality start.

Crazy. 8th game in the majors, never went more than 6, no hitter for Ronel Blanco.
Talking heads are saying he’s been using a change up that he learned in spring training this off season.

well, he gave up a double. but if you're only gonna strike out one through six, you have to be incredibly lucky

Roberts calls it as 14Ks, 1H, 0BBs, 7ip at 88 pitches. Woulda been cool to be irresponsible and let him go out and try break his strikeout record, but responsibility wins out

Not a no-hitter or a near one, but props to Albert Suarez, who has not pitched in the majors in more than six years and gave the Orioles 5 2/3 shutout innings today, 3 hits, no walks, 4 strikeouts.
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Wednesday, 17 April 2024 22:21 (yesterday) link
xp ty! some research suggests that's good spin but not the toppity top. asked cuz his spin seemed noticeably faster on slo mo than other pitchers i've seen, but maybe that's an effect of how fast/slow the slo-mo is.
fingers crossed he doesn't end up in the pulled pork thread. he was clocking 100.
