Tigers vs. twins Game Thread May 24

Since 2006, Sanchez has thrown 5 complete games allowing 1 or fewer hits, most in MLB during that time. the fourth one-hitter of his career. He had two in 2011, one in 2010.

lol

Even if you care about the nonsense of not mentioning a no-hitter, it applies only to uniformed persons in the dugout.

Says you... Nobody should speak of a no no.. Ever!

It doesn't apply to anyone, because jinxes are as real as Santa Clause and Pam Andersons tits.

Was that stat 5 complete game 1 hitters for Sanchez? Damn, now I'm really bummed for him.

He does already have a no-hitter.

Mario mentioned it as well right before the ninth.

But it is nonsense to believe in any of that. How many times do you think the fans at the park said the words no hitter...trust me it was a lot.

Agreed.

It's stupid when people all of sudden care about them with sports but treat them like the joke they are in everything else in life.

Hell I was thinking by the 4th but didn't dare say anything knowing how wiggy some people get over it. Lol maybe next time someone gets close everyone should just start screaming no hitter no hitter every 5 seconds and see if that makes any difference. LOL

I did think it was weird that Mario mentioned it because he purposely avoided saying it all night. He just kept saying how many walks Sanchez and given up and then he'd say "and that's it." Then right before the ninth he read his stat line and said "no hits."

I've mentioned JV throwing a no-hitter as early as the 2nd inning.

The earlier you mention a potential no-hitter, the better.

Good.

It's a complete joke when the announcers don't mention a no-hitter in progress.

redsox 8 - indians 1
8th inning,

There's going to be fans on both sides of this,

and lots of media jump on it asap, like espn, mlb network,

and even some Tigers news sites and
Tigers bloggers,

Even with Verlanders two no-hitters they were doing it, and he still threw the no-no's.

What does "the third time Joe Mauer has broken up a no hitter" mean?

Does it mean he's broken up a no-hitter in the 9th for the third time?

Certainly, Mauer must have gotten the first hit in a game more than three times...which is technically "breaking up a no hitter..."

Within 1 month in 1970, Horace Clarke broke up no-hit bids by Jim Rooker, Sonny Siebert & Joe Niekro, all in the 9th.
