Roy Halladay Pitches No-Hitter In Playoff Debut
Congratulations to the best pitcher in baseball welcoming himself to the postseason stage in the best way possible, as Roy Halladay no-hit the Reds to give the Phillies a 4-0 win in Game 1 of their NLDS. Only a two-out walk in the fifth inning to Jay Bruce kept this game from being a perfecto.
Move over Don Larsen, you have company.
Also, Nolan Ryan was the last pitcher to have two no-hitters in the same season, which he did for the Angels in 1973 (on May 15 and July 15).

So, I need some details
- R. Hernandez popped out to second
- M. Cairo hit for B. Bray
- M. Cairo fouled out to third
- B. Phillips grounded out to catcher
- End of Inning (0 Runs, 0 Hits, 0 Errors)
grounded out to catcher? Did he bunt?

He and Larsen had the same
game score at 94, the difference, one walk for Halladay but one more strikeout too
So imagine your a Reds fan, you wait 14 years to make the playoffs again, and you get no hit game 1.
What I’m saying is fuck the Phillies.
Obviously
the only man to have a regular-season and post-season no-hitter in the same season.

Another thing I don't get
how we did so well against all “aces” not named Josh Johnson, yet lost so many games against poorer pitchers. Granted, the games we won against the aces were not due to our offense…

If they could somehow run the table, I’d like them in the Sugar Bowl.
More likely they will lose 1 or 2 more and end up 9-3 mayb 10-2.
That will get them in the Capital One Bowl probably against Michigan or Wisconsin (#2 team in Big 10).

Ha!
He is loved on here. Not sure why exactly. I think he is a fine player, and very young. We would expect him to get better with a couple years of seeing NL Pitching.
How much better is he gonna get, in your opinion?
He strikes out a lot, Hits for an okay average. I’m not sure about his defense, but I’m sure it is good. He has decent speed.
Thanks
Rasmsus is like an inflated version of 2009 Kemp. More power, more walks, more strikeouts. Even if he just stays how he is, he’s a 5-6 win player over a full season. Plus unlike Kemp, if his strikeouts hurt his average too much (he had a .350 BABIP last year, but it was a laser show out there, so it’s not unreasonable) he still has the discipline to not be a black hole if he hits .240. So even if Rasmus keeps doing what he’s doing, he’s a great player.
As for improvements assuming you don’t count Hamilton and CarGo as CFs, Rasmus is the best hitting CF in baseball at 23, and if he cuts down the strikeouts at all while keeping his power up, you’re looking at a superstar. A CF with a .950 OPS that plays decent defense.
C’mon Twins!

According to baseballcube, the scout that signed Liriano was Rick Ragazzo in 2000. That same Rick Ragazzo is now listed as a “special asst to the GM” in 2010 for the Dodgers.

Its too bad the Twins are missing Morneau/Nathan….but seriously they need to start to win some in the playoffs. Seems like their postseason success is minimal.
It’d help if they didn’t play the Yankees every year! I don’t know if they played them in the first round in the past 3 postseasons, but they have lost to them the last 3 times they have played.
Heard a stat today that the Twins have won game 1 in 2 of the past 3 post seasons against NY. They have never won game 2, 3, or 4.
If they WC would come out of the West every now and then, it would rule out them getting beat by NY in the 1st round!

The last 36 hitters in the Philly/Cincy game went 0 for 35 with a walk.
