MLB regular season thread - part 4

[Spectaculard]

Angels have 9 players from their 25 man roster on the DL. That's including their top 2 starting pitchers, their number one closer and shortstop. How they are still alive at 22-27 I have no idea. Many people predicted this team to finish last with a healthy roster.

Moon shot by Bautista against Price. Hits the foul poll/netting. Whoa.

Somehow the no hitter is still going on in Tampa after some home town scoring calling an infield hit an error

And now it's dead. As is the shutout and the lead. A Gardner walk and a Castro home run puts the Yanks up 2-1.

27 Yankees, after about 10 days away, are back with a major vengeance.

Yanks are a half-inning away from winning a baseball game with one hit...wonder when the last time that happened was...I found the 2008 Dodgers who beat the Angels with 0 hits (in 8 at bats so not an official no-hitter) but can't find any info on 1-hitter wins. Probably not overwhelmingly rare.

Rangers did it on Opening Day this year against the Mariners.

So a little more often than once every two years. Which considering that article came out a little more than two years ago seems about right. Don't know if I'd call that a lot, this was the 65th time ever if this was the first one since the article came out.

The Yankees broadcast did say at the end of the game that it was the first time they've done it since 1914.

EDIT: So, the 66th time since 1914

So basically it's more rare than a no hitter.

 

[John Price]

Jayson Werth grand slam!

Andy Hawkins pitched a 8 inning no hitter and lost 4-0 at Chicago in 1990.
