If there ever were a game that could sum up the season thus far, this would have to be a strong candidate. The Dodgers offense consisted of 3 walks, 0 hits (yes, you read that correctly), and Matt Kemp reaching on an error by the pitcher Jered Weaver. Seriously, that’s it. I’m not even completely sure if what I watched was real or not.
But if we’re looking for the silver lining in...

If you look through the box scores from Saturday night, you will come across a stange site when you see the Dodgers and Angels game. The Dodgers won the game 1-0. The strange part? The Dodgers won the game without the benefit of a hit. That’s right, The Angels’ Jered Weaver and Jose Arredondo combined for a no-hitter and still lost the game.
In the 5th inning, Matt Kemp reached ...

Hot Foot
In an effort to show the league that the Mets haven’t found every possible way to lose, the Los Angelos Angels of Anaheim threw a no hitter against the Dodgers, and lost. Matt Kemp reached safely on an error by Weaver , stole, took another base on an error, and got sacrificed home.
The bar is raised. Or lowered. I’m not sure which. Either way, you’re move Oliver Perez. ...

Generally when you go out and pitch a no-hitter, you can chalk that up in the win column. For the erstwhile California Angels, that was not the case last night. Jered Weaver pitched 6 innings of no-hit ball but was lifted in the 7th for a pinch hitter. Unfortunately, thanks to two back-to-back errors in the fifth (the first of which was somewhat questionably), Matt Kemp scored on a sacrifice ...

If you had to pick only one story to talk about this weekend, it is a baseball milestone that is even more exclusive than the 600 HR Club: The Angels became only the 5th team in MLB history to lose after pitching a no-hitter. Jared Weaver and Jose Arredondo get the no-no, but the Dodgers get the win. Matt Kemp: Reached 1B on an error. Took 2B on a SB. Got 3B on another error. Scored on a sac ...
