Not only getting the no hitter but striking out the last hitter is always sweeter.

The 3 pitches in the 9th to get the strikeouts were just filthy.

Fun to watch.

Beats the Rich Bordi game versus Juan Samuel.

I've seen Dave Geisel take the mound late in the season to beat the Pirates.

But I've not seen every Cubs game ever.

Well, it's just so frustrating that they're finally having this awesome season while the Cardinals and Pirates are well ahead of them. At least the Cubs themselves have a healthy lead on the second wild card.

I feel the same way at times. This is so much fun but there is still a whole month of baseball left to play when the only game that matters is #163.

I know we are suppose to be a "year early" and I do think this team has the potential to be contenders for seasons to come, but I'm not going to just assume we are going to be even better next year and the Cardinals and Pirates will be worse.

Win it all this year.

There are just some things Theo can't control.

All the Sox fans in my office today saying it's tainted because of Castro's error (that they believe was a hit).

He did. Didn't get the scoring help.

GO BEARS!!!

Arrieta said he thought it was a hit also, to be fair.
It was early enough in the game, in addition to being on the road, that I don't think the fact that the Dodgers had zero hits at the time played a role in the decision.

_________________

Might have some merit if it were at Wrigley but the home teams scorer not giving the hit ? Plus I love the assumption that just because it was hard hit it should be scored a hit . As Hawk would say, this is the big leagues, you gotta make that play . It was right at him despite it being hit well. In that case every time an outfielder drops a line drive it should be a hit cuz it was hit hard .

This "no-hitter" needs an asterisk since LA is fifth lowest for scoring.

Of course he is going to say that. He isn't going to call out a teammate.

I can't believe some people think it was a hit. Yea, it was hit hard but it was hit right at Castro. That's routine.
