    No hitter and Shutout gone with 1 out in the 8th. Twins are up 3-1.

    Blake Snell is Perfect through 5 for the Rays at home against the D-Backs.

    "It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."

    The only thing more shocking than Mike Fiers throwing a no-hitter is finding out that it's the second time he's done it.

    Is Mike Fiers the worst pitcher with 2 no-hitters?

    Possibly. I know Homer Bailey has also thrown two no hitters so it's a close call.

    The Angels throwing a no hitter while all the players wearing Tyler Skaggs jerseys is probably the best moment in sport this year.

    Congrats to Lucas Giolito for throwing a no hitter last night, striking out 13 in the process. It's refreshing to see, especially after just talking about how starting pitchers can barely make it past 5 innings these days.

    Add the White Sox to the list of teams doing surprisingly well this season. They may be set to do very well for several years.

    Giolito is a budding star in this league, if he is not already. Ultimate power pitcher. When he's on, good luck getting anything in the air

    Yesterday's was pretty special. Alec Mills wasn't even recruited at UT-Martin. He just happened to decide to go to school there, then walked by the pitching coach one day at practice and told him he thought he was good enough to pitch on their team. Then he's a mid-20th round pick.

    If I'm that coach, I ignore him. How many kids walk up to practice and tell you they should be playing on your team. Kudos to him for hearing him out and giving him a try out.

    Cool story. I did not know that.

    I flipped over to the game, after getting an alert on my phone, to watch the last 1/2 inning. What I found interesting was that, according to the announcers, Mills had only gotten 5 swings and misses in his 110 or so pitches. That's very low.
