Do the Astros have the lead in combined no hitters? They have four that I can think of (Javier twice last year, the Aaron Sanchez miracle start, the Oswalt game)

Yes, they have four. The next highest are the Orioles and Angels with two apiece, and then these teams each have one: A's, Dodgers, Brewers, Pirates, Cubs, Phillies, Tigers, Mets, Braves, Mariners, White Sox, Red Sox (the one where Babe Ruth got thrown out :lol: , which is also the first combined no-no)

Lest anyone not know - Ruth started and walked the first batter. Argued and got tossed. (Reportedly punching the ump as well.) Ernie Shore came in, the runner was thrown out stealing and Shore retired 26 in a row.

Was credited with a perfect game for decades, but changed to combined no-no around the early 90s if I remember right.

lmao if it turns out that the reason Stroman's been awful going back to the London start is because he was hurt but the Cubs refused to IL him because they were afraid it would harm his trade value before the deadline.

I assume WezNASTY is back in the rotation unless last night's two innings gently caress up the timing.

Are the 2022 combos the only no-hitters started and closed out by the same guys?

the Braves can’t afford to be picky on this

edit: sheesh, thought the Braves had to have the longest no-hitter drought since Mercker's in '94 but Cleveland hasn't had once since 1981, and the Blue Jays have only ever had one and that was in 1990

So I'm guessing Ohtani had either a whole lot more walks or a whole lot more doubles than Bellinger for his average to be .118 lower, but his OPS .030 higher.

15 more walks for Ohtani (22 vs 7). 2 doubles 2 triples for him vs 5 doubles for Bellinger. 8 more PA for Bellinger

That was Len Barker wasn't it? (Checks) Yes, yes it was.

The trade to get him ranks among the Braves worst, rivalling Mark Texiera and J.D. Drew.
