Tyler Mahle - a pitcher in the Reds system currently in Double A - pitched a perfect game over the weekend. 89 pitches. 27 outs.



I don't care what level you are at - that's impressive.

He also had a no hitter last June, facing the minimum 27 batters but it wasn't a "perfect game" because he hit a batter.

On the season, he's 4-0 with a 0.68 ERA in 4 starts.

seriously didn't come to hijack-off the MLB thread though. Was trying to get into the game the last couple seasons because the jays were playing well, damn right i jumped on that bandwagon, but now Joey Bats can't hit for shit and they can't win a game. So i'm torn!

Joey Bats will catch fire. I wouldnt worry about him. Eventually he'll work his way all the way up to his career .250 average. o_O

couple guys at my office are big baseball fans. They think that by June the team will be unrecognizable
Because the team will trade away all the talent? Or because they think they will be winning games?

They are off to a horrible start. 5-13

Yeah because they will clear house and have a totally new roster. The only money maker (merch wise) on the team is really Joey Bats so they keep him i guess and fire sale everyone else

Chopped is doing a baseball themed show right now with ballpark inspired ingredients. The finals is some Reds fan vs some Rangers fan.

Oh, and Yankees / Red Sux start their first set of the season tonight.

Chris Coghlan went from 1st to Home on a hit off the wall last night, and finished it off with a superman leap over future Hall of Famer Yadier Molina.

Looking at that video, I'm pretty sure he missed 3rd though.
And what a shit decision to wave him home. The fuck is that 3rd base coach looking at? That throw beat him by 10 feet.

Blue Jays ended up winning the game by 1. 6-5 in 11 innings.

Giants were up 2-1 in the top of the 9th last night, and the Dodgers had a man on 2nd with 2 out. With Adrienne Gonzalez at the plate, Buster Posey picked off Justin Turner at 2nd - who had taken too big of a secondary lead on the pitch. Game over.

Hell of a throw by Posey.

Big Sano at third base for the Twins had a couple of defensive gems in the field lastnight. They were playing in Texas. He went 2 for 4 with a monster homerun. It went up in the second deck. Its cool to see a guy that weighs about 270lbs diving for plays.

The Yanks wrapped up their set against the Red Sux tonight with a 3-0 win. Tanaka pitched a compete game shut out and he kept his pitch count under 100 pitches while that pussy Chrissy Sale could only stand to go eight innings. The first game of the set was rained out, and the Yanks won the other two.

Robbie Hart @Throbbie Fart, ahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahaha!
