A Thread For Starting Pitchers That Are Doing Really Well

http://groundballwitheyes.blogspot.com/2012/04/maddux.html

* 28 Madduxes have been 1-0 games, including Roy Halladay's performance on September 6th, 2003, when he became the only pitcher to throw an extra-inning Maddux, going 10 frames on just 99 pitches. Just when you thought Halladay couldn't be any greater, right?

wish we had the data to see how many Madduxes Seaver threw

Jamie Moyer is active?

he was when the post was first written

although there are vague rumors that he's gonna try to come back again as a knuckleballer

royals prospect chris dwyer is perfect through six for omaha in the triple-a championship game

Wacha flocka through 5

through 6 despite denard span's bunt attempt

wish i could watch, but i live in DC and pay >$100 for mlb.tv, therefore i'm not allowed to watch the game

?!?! fucking mlb.tv

seven. fuckin nationals are useless to me

cardinals tv guys studiously avoiding mentioning the no-hitter

just saw that catch as MLB Network is going to it live.

he has walked two batters and this is his ninth start?

so close

awwwwwwww

that sounded really close!

waaaaaaaaaaah waaaaaaaaaaaaacha

brutal

now back to winning and losing

that's a shame. he was in uncharted waters throwing that many pitches, wonder if matheny considered pulling him

Henderson Alvarez, 9 no-hit innings vs Tigers in scoreless game

too bad yr all watching the NFL

"90 feet away from the no-hitter" you don't hear every year

Coghlan trying to hit the ball 600 feet.

was sure he was gonna whiff on the 2-2

lololol

I LOVE BASEBALL

You've got to be kidding me

how many CG no-hitters have ended with the pitcher's team scoring?

Neyer on precedents:

http://www.baseballnation.com/2013/9/29/4784066/henderson-alvarez-marlins-no-hitter-walkoff-wild-pitch

had no idea the marlins had five no-hitters

whodathunk

my take away from that (and it's a good piece) is that Dick Fowler
is from toronto.

Also, it was at Maddux!

it was a Maddux. I meant.

so let's say it was alvarez's spot that came up instead of koyle hill's/greg dobbs' -- do you let him bat, or do you decide that the marlins have a better shot of scoring here with a pinch hitter than they do of alvarez pitching another no-hit inning + marlins scoring in the 10th?

alvarez was 9-for-30 this year (113 ops+!), but still.

Without mentioning which game it is exactly, but there's something special going on tonight.

real sad it was broken up.

Yeah, this is gonna hurt somebody's feelings -- hopefully Garza's.

This is an incredible match up

Ugh, Uecker just did his patented "Get up, get OUT... foul" call. So much for that.

36-degree weather fun to hit in

kudos to 1st mgr w/ hook after 90 pitches

trivia: aaron harang holds the dodger record for most consecutive strikeouts at 9

Funny how a thrilling, potentially historic no hitter can become a boring, ol' low scoring game in the blink of an eye

become? #teamkenny

man this game is so uncool now

i preferred their early stuff, earlier in the game

lester/sale, half of which has been bogaerts'd

nm

this Harang bid is hardly "doing really well"
