I've never understood managers taking a pitcher out if he's got a no-hitter going. Crazy


Roberts said it's because he's a rookie and on a pitch count. But still, he might never come this close again, so I would have left him in.

On the other hand, looks like the Dodgers' got this decision right:

Cubs place Yu Darvish on disabled list

CHICAGO -- The Chicago Cubs have placed struggling right-hander Yu Darvish on the 10-day disabled list with the flu.

The 31-year-old Darvish is 0-3 with a 6.00 ERA in his first season with Chicago after finalizing a $126 million, six-year contract in February. He was scheduled to start Tuesday night against Miami, but the Cubs provided no word on a replacement.

Even though he's hitting .276 with 18 hrs and 4-2 as a pitcher, looks like Ohtani is done until 2020: https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/columnist/bob-nightengale/2018/09/05/tommy-john-surgery-shohei-ohtani-angels-fans/1207697002/

Not particularly an Angels fan or American League fan, but end of an era in Anaheim: http://www.latimes.com/sports/angels/la-sp-angels-mike-scioscia-20180930-story.html#

Hopefully they got their money's worth. 2 games for the price of 1. Dodgers win 3-2 in 18 innings!! Victory! Peace!

Even Clayton Kershaw got into the act as a pinch hitter. Crazy

After losing the championship to the BoSox on Sunday, the Dodgers now have the dubious distinction of having the most World Series losses than any other team in baseball history. ashamed

Collected baseball cards as a kid, so I remember some of those players' cards:
Bob Aspromonte, thirdbaseman, Houston Colt 45's
Don Demeter, centerfielder, Philadelphia Phillies
Jim Gentile, firstbaseman, Baltimore Orioles
Joe Pignatano, catcher, Dodgers
Sandy Koufax, had his 1962 card

Funny how you can remember little things from over 50 years ago, but don't remember what you had for dinner last night.

Ichiro never did this!

Shohei Ohtani hits for the cycle

Angels DH Shohei Ohtani hit for the cycle on Thursday night against the Rays, becoming the first Japanese-born player to accomplish the feat. Ohtani is the second player to hit for the cycle this season, joining the Twins’ Jorge Polanco, who did so on April 5 against the Phillies. Mike Trout was the last Angel to hit for the cycle, occurring on May 21, 2013 against the Mariners.

Ohtani gave the Angels an early 3-0 lead, drilling a three-run home run to left-center field in the first inning off of Ryan Yarbrough. Ohtani then led off the third with a double, tripled in the fifth, and singled in the seventh.

Ohtani made his season debut on May 7 after recovering from offseason Tommy John surgery. He was off to a slow start but has heated up as of late. Since June 4, Ohtani has 14 hits in 35 trips to the plate with five homers, a pair of doubles, a triple, and 12 RBI.
