Yu Darvish No Hitting Boston Through 7 Innings

[klunderbunker]

First deep run with one of these this season.

 

[klunderbunker]

Make it 8.

 

[Harthan]

Oh shit. Gonna try to get me a look at this game. Is it on TV?

 

[klunderbunker]

Not that I know of.

 

[klunderbunker]

It's on MLB Network.

 

[klunderbunker]

Sharp grounder to third is good for an out.

 

[klunderbunker]

Strikeout brings up David Ortiz as the last hope.

 

[klunderbunker]

And never mind as Ortiz beat the shift and broke it up.

Yu Darvish is the new Dave Stieb. Am I the first guy to bring up the name Dave Stieb on the forum?

After a quick search.....actually no. Habs did about four years ago.

Didn't expect an actual answer but interesting to know.

 

[Harthan]

WOW. I am shocked that of all the ways that ended, it's by David Ortiz of all people hitting through a shift.

KB, if an Orioles pitcher ever has a perfect game or a no-no going, please don't post anything about it.

Not that you'll have to worry about that, but still.

 

[klunderbunker]

I've gotten some right before.

Just ribbing ya. I remember it becoming a bit of a running joke last season. Ain't no Yu Darvish's on the O's roster, that's for doggone sure.

 

[Harthan]

I definitely remember coming to these threads and the no hitter happening. Keep 'em coming KB, this is usually the only way I find out live.

 

[The Butcher]

It's definitely a public service. Even if the no-no isn't completed, the thrill of watching is one of the great thrills in baseball.

 

[klunderbunker]

Totally. THat and a hit streak or extra innings. I love seeing how far they can get something to go.

 

[It's...Baylariat!]

I'm predicting three perfect games this season, and one no-hitter.

I'm predicting three perfect games this season, and one no-hitter.

Even as a Boston fan I was kinda rooting for the perfect game to happen since I knew Boston wasn't coming back to win. Kinda funny Ortiz broke up the perfect game and the no hitter in different innings.

 

[The Butcher]

Funny if your name isn't Yu Darvish. Didn't see it live, but after watching the highlights I'm guessing he had to have been thinking "how much better do I have to pitch to seal one of these?" after the game. Dude's stuff was sick. I guess it's no soup for Yu.
