Hank Aaron led the MLB in home runs at the age of 23. He hit .314 with 27 home runs and 106 RBIs his second season, at 21 years old.

Fairly comparable to a guy who didn't hit his fifth home run in his career until he was 29 years old. Good call. Hmm.

So you're accusing Hank of hitting the steroids early?

According to wades, steroids is a magical drug that makes people go from China leagues to the top of the mlb.

The sixth no-hitter of the season came on May 19. History was made when Corey Kluber blanked the Rangers.

The seventh no-hitter of the season came on June 24, when Zach Davies and three relievers stymied the Dodgers. This ties the modern-day record for no-no’s in a season, (with roughly 54% of the games remaining).

There were 4 in a 2-week stretch from May 5-19 and it was looking like there’d be 20 no-hitters this season.

But it took another 5 week for one to be thrown. And this one had a bazillion walks.

I’m not concluding or even suggesting anything. It’ll be interesting to see how many there’ll be when the season is complete.

I think you are and most of us are thinking the same thing.

That the no-hitters of ‘21 are historical? Magical? Special?

Yeaaah... that's the ticket.

With Escobar not in the Dbacks lineup today, and the inferno around the trade rumors, I’m guessing he’ll be on his way to Chicago by this evening.

Yeah, I expect him to be with Chicago tomorrow, but Brewers have been talking to D’backs as well.

Big series for the Crew coming up against the Cubs. They’ve played them well so far. Getting a series win would be nice to stretch the lead to 4.

Definitely. Pitching matchups lineup well.

One down. Two to go.

When do the Cubs trade Bryant? Now till ASG or at the deadline?

Crazy. I was happy with the 2/3 when we got down 7-0. Brewers offense turned it around with a few touchdown drives.

Not often both teams have a 7 run lead in the same game.

Don’t understand why the Cubs aren’t throwing out Sogard against the brewers every game.

In fact, it was the first time in the modern era that it happened before the 5th inning.

CreightonWarrior · « **Reply #797 on:** June 30, 2021, 09:23:08 PM »

Second time since 1900 that a team has scored 7+ runs in 1st and inning and lost.

The trade for Willy Adames really seems to be just what the doctor ordered. The Crew has been a completely different team once he arrived. It has allowed Luis Urias to settle in to a more comfortable position as the #1 utility guy (admittedly playing for Shaw right now). Moreover, the Nashville call-ups like Taylor and Peterson have been outstanding contributors. Even Hiura seems to be getting it going and Wong will be back in the line-up tomorrow in his customary lead off spot. We haven't even mentioned Yeli who has yet to hit his stride.

And how about the pen that Stearns has assembled, even in these past 3-4 weeks? All in support of a dynamite starting 5, three of which are electric special. Best Brewer pitching ever? Perhaps.

This team is good. Really good. Be nice if it could be a special season.

So, it turns out that Trevor Bauer might not be such a nice guy.
