Only 2 Ks.

Btw, Trout is back and showing everyone why he’s still the best player in the game.  He seemed to have been forgotten after the injury last year but he’s putting up video game numbers.

This is pretty crazy. Not surprising that he chose to try it against a position player junkballer like Phillips though, and it makes total sense. I bet most of these guys could switch hit to some degree because of how naturally talented they are. I wonder if this moment will be a springboard into players batting oppo for position player pitchers. Mullins comes to mind.

Looks like Pirates have pulled the trick of getting no-hit and winning 1-0.

Reds Hunter Greene with 22 of 24 outs, team only needed 24 since they lost as visitor.

I suppose odd situation for Reds hitters in top of the 9th there.

Ends up being "unofficial".

I remember when the O’s did that in 1967.  Actually, they lost 2-1.   https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/BAL/BAL196704301.shtml. Rookie Mark Belanger came in as a defensive replacement in the 9th and made an error that lost them the game.

I can remember watching that game, I was 14. I grew up just across the border from Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, they carried Tigers games. They didn't televise all the games back then, but always seem to televise their away games in Baltimore. Maybe because the announcer was George Kell, who played for the Orioles or because Al Kaline was from Baltimore. Kell was such a homer I couldn't cheer for the Tigers and hated the Yankees, so I just latched on to the O's. Sure wished the Orioles could have a run of pitchers like back in the 60's.

A lineup that includes Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani have yet to be able to create any imperfection in Jameson Taillon's game through 6 innings.

Two more chances tonight: Gerrit Cole was perfect into the 7th vs Detroit but wound up giving up hits.

And Joe Musgrove had a no hitter for 7.2 innings vs Milwaukee before giving up a double.

Luis Castillo, one of the premium pitchers rumored to be on the trade deadline trading block, is having a fine audition at Yankee Stadium, into the 6th inning.

Ruh roh.    If he's not careful, fans outside the Central divisions might discover who he is...

78 pitches in 5 innings gonna need a team effort.

If you thought we might get some help in our wild card chase from the Nats out in Seattle tonight.... Robbie Ray has not allowed a hit through 6 innings so it doesn't appear the Nats are being very helpful so far.

But it's only 2-0 in the bottom of the 6th.

Luis Severino pitched 7 innings of no-hit ball last night and the Yankees pulled him from the game after 94 pitches.  Undoubtedly the right move considering they’re going to the postseason, but still a bummer.
