OT: Pirates avenge Harvey Haddix game
Check out tonight's Dodger-Pirates game.
Rich Hill loses no hitter in 10th on a homerun. Loses perfect game in 9th on an error. Neither has happened in baseball history! Wow. |

When was the last time a starting pitcher took the mound in the 10th inning? That alone is a rarity.
And as rare as that game was, what the Dodgers are doing this season is equally amazing. How can they not win it all this year? |

The only thing better than a Dodger loss is a Pirates win. Very enjoyable game.

Maybe I'm wrong but I seem to remember Jonathan Sanchez lost a perfect game int he 9th when Juan Uribe made an error.

Maybe you should watch professional golf instead of baseball. Lots of hitting there, lots of long drives, and no swings and misses.

Park it

Getting close only counts in horseshoes, hand grenades and dancing. Perfect games and no hitters only count in AL after 1973. Replays showed an infield single count as an out, and at least one batter who should have walked but was called strike 3 during the perfect game bid. Neither batters were pitchers but I presume that since Hill took the hill against the *inferior* NL that it just doesn't matter.

Great game. I was there. If you love baseball you loved that game. I'm a big time Pirate fan but I was secretly rooting for a perfect game. After the error I was rooting for my Buccos.

I love the negativity on what was a great baseball game. ever notice how some people are negative on just about everything.

Not to derail completely, since I really feel that a no hitter and a perfect game counts in both leagues ever since baseball was invented.
Rich Hill's effort is the finest of his career...and despite today's 7 inning environment it should be applauded. Just being in the game in the 10th inning is remarkable! Some of the membership here (okay maybe just one guy) seems to have an opinion that since the DH was instituted , only AL No-hitters are valid. Whatever... Anyway, In the replay era , it's interesting to see how some details of the game play can be scrutinized. The diving play by Chase Utley, the suspicious infield hit called an out by Josh Bell and a suspect third strike against Sean Rodriguez. Imagine how many details we get to see now that go unmentioned from no hitters in the past. Does anyone know any details about the Johnny Vander Meer no hitters like those situations above that really determined the outcome? Replay is great!

I would say that at least two pitches prior to that called third strike could have been called strikes. In addition, the computer graphic showed that the called strike three did in fact touch the strike zone.
