Jinxes don't exist, and I'm not that important. You know how many no-hitters I've watched in the last couple weeks ??? In every one of them, the no-hitter was mentioned for at least the last four innings. They still got the no-hitter.

I wish that I could than this post (and this particular sentiment) 100 times.

Are we all sharpening our pitchforks for when Wojo gets pulled from his no hitter?

Do you mean you allowed yours to get dull this season?

I suppose you let your torch go out too, huh?

You’re setting a very bad example for the unruly mob.

Does David Hess know his phone number?

I don't see how that won't happen if he keeps it going, but at 85 pitches through six, it may be up to the bullpen for a combined no hitter.

Yeah maybe if it wasn’t a billion degrees outside they could push him.  He needs 2 fast, clean innings....

Hearing this sentiment from an Oriole fan as of late reminds me of George Carlin's list of things that you rarely hear ........ such as, "Dad, you really ought to drink more."

Probably not.

85 pitches. Six innings is his career high. But in that game  he was less efficient, throwing 100 pitches (65 for strikes).

I'll bet he's done now... VERY tough day.

The strikeouts kinda screwed him, but hey never know. Wojo's in unknown territory at this point. It would be awfully impressive if he pushed through this though and did it.

Meh, there's nothing to get irate about this season.

I think they give him max 7 innings. If he puts a bunch of runners on, let him walk off to a standing O.

I'm more worried about who they'll bring in. Probably Bleier?

Wojo's Balls-to-Strikes ratio that inning was sub-par (5 Strikes, 7 Balls.)

That may mean nothing, but I am wondering if it could be a sign that he is tiring a bit.

Only thing that would bring torches and pitchforks this year is if Elias trades prospects for a mediocre starter.
