If superstition about talking about no-hitters extends to random losers on the internet, no one will ever pitch a no-hitter ever again.

Morbs, you're right, of course, but Marquis is so regularly denigrated as, at best, a league average innings-eater (and I'm not arguing this isn't true) that when he actually does, you know, top the most visible stat list, I'm happy to celebrate him. Ubaldo is just a stud. Keep watching this guy (probably lose it completely tonight, ending our 8-win streak singlehandedly, hey ho).

or when a pitcher is doing really well on a date, like if i see chad billingsley at a bar in l.a. scoring with some hot chick, i'll come back here and report on that.

Dear my vagina, are you to the right as in the first base or third base side?

Stacey Pollen (Andy K), Saturday, 11 July 2009 03:41 (fifteen years ago) link

First. In the belowground section when they're showing the batter.

Does it count if it was against the Padres?

After watching this, happened to switch over to NYY-LAA in time to see Jeter's dropped routine pop-up -- talk about the cherry on top.

Amazing that a no-hitter was thrown w/ that 3B-SS combo on the field.

Stacey Pollen (Andy K), Saturday, 11 July 2009 09:37 (fifteen years ago) link

Shouldn't count when you do it against the Padres.

Oh, I see Steve has already mentioned that.

Those were the best seats I've ever had for a major-league game. I was in the front row, third base side for Nolan Ryan's seventh no-hitter at Arlington Stadium, but the game itself is kind of a blur and we were out just past third.

I didn't think to get a SF paper the next morning :(

call all destroyer, Thursday, 23 July 2009 20:24 (fifteen years ago) link

I did not realize that Mark B is only 30 years old!

Seems like he's been around forever.

Your heartbeat soun like sasquatch feet (polyphonic), Thursday, 23 July 2009 20:31 (fifteen years ago) link

yeah he was a youngun when he debuted.

call all destroyer, Thursday, 23 July 2009 20:35 (fifteen years ago) link

Saw this on another board:

Cy Young, Addie Joss, Jim Bunning, Randy Johnson, Sandy Koufax, and now Mark Buehrle have all thrown no-hitters in addition to their perfectos.
