Nick and I talk about Matt Garza’s wonderful no hitter that’s about 6000 times better than a “regular” no hitter because he faced the minimum number of batters. That’s as close to a perfect game as one can get, not like a no hitter with eight walks, which isn’t in the same zip code of accomplishments as what Garza did.
That said, as a baseball fan, do you root for or against no hitters when they’re happening? The more they happen, the less special they seem, so do you root for the pitcher, or do you find yourself rooting for the batter to break it up.
We also discuss Chris Coghlan’s torn meniscus after pie-in-the-facing Wes Helms. Sad…but really really hilarious. We talk a lot about that and come to two very important conclusions: first, pie-in-the-face can only come from Tomas Perez or the 25th man equivalent on the bench and second, Silly String is so much better than the pie in the face. Let’s bring that back.
We also do a brief recap of Mad Men. Thanks for listening.
