No-hitter alert

and now it's starting to rain hard .. this game has had everything, I think.

 

And if Hoffman gets pitches 4 inches outside and high called strikes ... goodnight and good luck.

 

From bad to worse .. Izturis to Jacques Strap Jones

 

I have wanted few things in my life as badly as I want Junk Jones out of Chicago.

 

I would pay someone to ask Sweet Lou if he second-guesses leaving Zambrano in the game in the ninth ;D

 

Have you been over to any of the Jessica Alba threads?

 

I have an attractive girlfriend, but Junk Jones leaving Chicago is something I want and don't have.

 

Matt Cain has a no-hitter through one.

 

Oh, come on.
Get used to that.

 

Is it me, or has there been more almost-no-hitters this year than most at this point in the season?

 

Compared to the last several years, absolutely.

Hell, just the fact we've had two actual no-hitters is noteworthy in this decade. 2001 had three (almost four, if Mussina had gotten Carl Everett out), and 2003 had two*. This has been a pretty good year, for sure.


* one was a combined no-no
