That's another reason to not like the DH :P

(The Twins game in which it happened was on my birthday )

[TheNamelessPoet]

That's happened before. The Twins had to do that in one game back in 2007 because of an injury.

It either the average velocity throughout the entire journey, or an instant velocity that's measured sometime between when the pitcher releases the ball and the catcher receives it.

That's not very scientific

Single, walk, single, single, walk to start an inning and you get ONE run? Come on!

[OldFatGuy]

NEWSFLASH

Nats lose.

That is all.

[HoustonGM]

Single, walk, single, single, walk to start an inning and you get ONE run? Come on!

How does that even work?

First 3 things, and the bases are loaded. Single again, one run in and the bases loaded...walk = 2 runs...

Am i Missing something?

Baserunning, I'm guessing.

Newsflash, Zack Greinke is embarrassing the opponents right now. 43 consecutive innings without an earned run. Back to back complete games. Tigers had no chance.

Wow, ESPN's box scores are REALLY slow today...I was just looking at the box score and it said it was the bottom of the 8th with 1 out.

I suppose now would be a bad time to ask if you're interested in trading him?

I didn't see tonight's game, but yesterday Gil Meche threw another good game. Bullpen let him down though. That KC pitching staff is looking like the real deal to me.

Damn spoilers!

The top 2 were a given to be "the real deal" (Meche and Greinke), and Davies is starting to prove that his hot September represented a breakout, and that gives them a top 3 that can compete with anybody in the league.

The back of the rotation though? Well...let's pretend that doesn't exist .

We'll worry AFTER the next complete game shut out

Well, HoRam has already been replaced by Bannister, and Hochevar will replace Ponson in early May (when he stays down long enough for the Royals to control him for another year). Banny and Hochevar are okay as 4/5, a lot better than Ponson and HoRam.

1-2-3 are very good as you say, 4-5 of Hoch and Banny is respectable for a back end of the rotation.
