I just saw that the Brewers' pitcher tonight has a no hitter through 6 innings. Are they good enough to have a puncher's chance in the playoffs?
and now they’re losing. This is on you.
Oops. At least Lester came cheap.
Or Covid. Those stiffs - Norris and Hardy - never would have seen the field otherwise.
Remember when there was some hair on fire that there were gonna be a bazillion no-hitters this year after there were 4 in a 2-week stretch of May?Well, since then, there has been exactly one -- the 4-pitcher no-hitter by the Cubs on June 24 that, coincidentally, marked the last day the North Siders were relevant this season.The last solo pitcher to throw one was Kluber almost 3 months ago.Always beware of "on the pace to" stats.
Think there's any reason for that? Perhaps MLB's stance on applying substances to baseballs?Go look at spin rates before and after that decisionEdit: https://www.wsj.com/articles/mlb-spin-rate-data-foreign-substances-11625189466
Nah, definitely Mugsy’s fault.
I'll stick with my opinion on Gold. He'll be in foul trouble within the first eight minutes.
I'll take the blame. But to DTD's point why on earth would a manager pull a pitcher with a no-hitter through 6+ innings?
Axford out for the year. Not the Cinderella story the brewers could’ve used.
5 batters. We hardly re-met thee.

He left with 104 pitches in the 6th. He had no shot at a no hitter.
Actually left with 1 out in the 7th.And I wasn't making the case that Counsell should have left him in. I'm a big Counsell fan. I was merely observing that not all that many years ago, no manager in baseball would have yanked a guy with a 4 run lead and 8 outs away from a no-hitter.
It’s almost like there was a dramatic change with pitching that took place shortly thereafter.
