 No runs, no hits, no errors  Links5
A thing of beauty:  000 000 000 0 0 0 That is what the Comerica Park scoreboard showed. Justin Verlander, the catcher in front of him, and the seven behind him, allowed no runs, committed no errors, and you already know, allowed no hits. I had to take awhile to breathe. To think. To remember. Not really to digest. How can you not digest what went on? Verlander stood on the mound and ... [link]

SAINT ANDREW'S NET: JUNGLE CATS!

... Mack Avenue Tigers employs stream of consciousness.  Justin Verlander throws a no-no.  Good for the Tigers, but I prefer leopards over the other jungle cats.

... , easy as you please. And Polanco somehow sent it along to first for the double play to end the 8th. I thought that was a hit, that was ZE END, I was going to have to shed a wee little tear for yet another lost no-hitter, but NEIFI!!! PEREZ CAME THROUGH IN THE DEFENSIVE CLUTCH. Read THOSE words. Savor them. O THIS WACKY WORLD WE LIVE IN. The tension watching those final outs was damn near unbearable. From Mack Avenue Tigers (the site from which I blatantly copied my post title): Something happens in the bottom of the eighth. To be honest, I don't remember. I'm standing up. I'm sitting down. I'm up. I'm down. I'm up I'm down i'm up i'm down imupimdown I can't take it oh my God I can't take it. The camera shows the RHE on the right side of the scoreboard at Comerica Park. 0 0 0.

The Big Story: Justin Verlander

... I had to take awhile to breathe. To think. To remember. Not really to digest. How can you not digest what went on? Verlander stood on the mound and for 27 outs did not allow a hit. Not to gain perspective. It’s easy to put this one into perspective. Every Tigers fan knows who Jack Morris is. Every Tigers fan knows how long ago 1984 was. Every baseball fan knows how rare a no hitter is. And Verlander is 24, is in just his second year in the majors. No, I think the guy down the street who doesn’t watch baseball can put that into perspective just fine. (Mack Avenue Tigers)
