Absolutely inexcusable. I hope they find them and ban them.

2 days old, but my son got to see the Mets pitchers combine to pitch a no hitter on Friday night vs Phillies. Exciting to watch. Granted, it's not the same as a single pitcher accomplishing this, but it sure was exciting!

Talk about pressure...as you arrive at the pitchers mound and are handed the ball everyone looks at you and says now don't screw it up...

That was a good 'team' win.

I watched Don Larson’s perfect game at 7 months old. My dad said I couldn’t keep my eyes off it. So when I say I’m a lifelong baseball fan, I mean it.

Hey, Jim! I was at Shea Stadium in June '64 and saw Jim Bunning pitch a perfect game. By the 7th inning even we Mets fans were rooting for him! It was Father's day, so my mother and sister were there as well. That night, he was a guest on Ed Sullivan show!

Phillies-Mets called off just in time to make a u-turn before paying the bridge toll. Now home for the Derby and some Rangers hockey.

The Kentucky Derby was a big surprise! Too bad you didn't make the ball game but hopefully you found the Derby exciting.

The Rangers made it a game of it after I thought they were done when Shesterkin was pulled but they came back.

Crosby's two points moved him into 6th place all time in career playing points with 197, one ahead of Coffey and four behind Jagr. Rooting for him to get those 4 points in this series.

Let's go Bruins! Puck drops in a hour.

Yes. Anything to avoid the Redsox season-long skid.

How bad is it for the Reds? They give up 0 hits in a game yet they still lose. Amazing.

Yankees are starting to worry me. They're too good.

As I recall, Matt Young pitched 8 innngs of no-hit ball for the Redsox and lost. His advice after the game: “if you have to lose a no hitter, do it at home.”

Yep. The Reds 0 hits allowed game isn't considered a no-hitter since they didn't pitch the 9th (home team was ahead so no bottom of the 9th to pitch).

Shocked that Cora left in a Red Sox starter for the full 9 innings last night. Best pitching performance of the year as Pivetta had a 2 hitter. But I guess only 2 hits, no walks, no errors means no one on base for Cora to pull early.

Boston starting hitters are either hitting over .300 (three of them) or at/below .200. Crazy.
