June 26, 201015 yr QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 08:56 PM) Didn't Bartlett make the last out Vs Buehrle? I believe you are correct, I was just thinking the same thing. And it was also a groundout to SS
June 26, 201015 yr Wow, good work E-Jax, congrats. LOL at Dontrelle Willis, he was the first person running out of that dugout
June 26, 201015 yr What's up with Tampa and getting no-hit? haha That's the third time in the span of a calendar year haha
June 26, 201015 yr I'm more impressed with a pitcher who strikes out the side than I am with a no-hitter or perfect game this year. And has Tampa come back down to earth or what? I knew they weren't going to stay on that ridiculous pace they were on. But man, they've been exposed. Edited June 26, 201015 yr by Jordan4life
June 26, 201015 yr Well, to be fair, Bartlett is usually going to hit 1, 2 or 9. Makes him quite the target to make the last out in a lot of these things...

BJ Upton is killing them, now Crawford might be injured, Bartlett has come way, way down to earth, and their pitching is going to come back to earth as well. They are the 3rd or maybe even 4th best team in that division.

Today there were 10 baserunners and he happened to be the final out.

June 26, 201015 yr I'm hoping the Rangers lose tonight...I'm tired of them stealing a bit of our spotlight They're down 5-3 in the 7th to the Astros.
June 26, 201015 yr I think we should all be rooting heavily for the Mariners. The more the Twins' lead shrinks, the more inclined they are to go after Cliff Lee. So hope the M's get back into this somewhat and hold on to Lee. Because Minnesota definitely has the prospects to get him.

June 26, 201015 yr QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 09:00 PM) Jason Bartlett was on deck when Dallas Braden finished off his perfect game. Well it has to do with where he hits in the batting order. Even when Jackson allowed what 10 base runners 1 picked off? So falls right back at Bartlett. Tough spot for him really.
June 26, 201015 yr QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jun 26, 2010 -> 11:31 AM) This no-hitter s*** is getting stupid. I was going to write this. I never thought I'd say this because it seems crazy to say but now it's kind of boring to see these no-hitters. The reason they're special is because you only get to see one every couple of years, and a perfect game maybe every 5 years. Now you see a no-hitter every couple of weeks.

Apparently, in 1990, there were 5 no hitters by this date, there have been 4 this year.
June 26, 201015 yr there were 14 no hitters (including 3 combined) from 1990-1991 getting no hitters in bunches is not new still, its pretty cool when they happen even if you have to throw 250 pitches
June 27, 201015 yr Pedroia to the DL with a broken foot. (Sox are 4.5 games behind Boston in the WC right now, TB 0.5 games ahead of Boston).
