I'm watching the Tigers and the Twins right now tied 7-7 in the mid 10th.. go Tigs!

Cedeno's sub-.150 absolutely kills me. Where the hell is our offense? We have the best pitching in the league, at least in the runs given up category. Ah, well, one thing at a time. Glad to see us above .500, and not blathering in mediocrity like last year.

King Felix was sharp as always. Even though it didn't turn out as I had hoped, it was an awesome game.

Last night, Tim Lincecum took a no hitter into the 7th. Jonathan Sanchez just lost a perfect game on an error in the 8th. Still has a no-no. This is insane.

Is it? you're playing the team that is last in the NL in BA, Runs, Hits and Slugging. We're also second to last in ERA, and our current ace is Kevin Correia...

Major league hitters... Gwynn, Kouzmanoff, Gonzalez... You can't really argue that it is impressive. And Sanchez was demoted to the bullpen a couple of weeks ago. He's only pitching tonight because Randy Johnson is hurt.

Correia as an ace: LOL. He was our #5 last year.

That's it! Jonathan Sanchez, no hitter! He pitched a perfect game, and the Padres only reached on an error! Amazing game. I've been waiting for this forever.

ESPN is calling it a no-hitter because of the error.

Gwynn is young and streaky. Kouz is batting under .240 and Gonzalez is slumping. If those guys could get going at the same time we'd have a formidable top half of the line-up. You are right though, a no-hitter that would have been a perfect game except for an error is impressive against any team.

and yeah...Correia. Peavy and Young are both on the DL. Believe me, I'm sad about it.

Does Peavy become a free-agent after this year?

Peavy is on contract with the Padres through 2013.

Dang, Well it's not like I could count on the Twins to sign a big name, quality player outside of their farm system anyway.

In the books it is a No-Hitter because he faced more than the minimum batters, but he pitched a perfect game. He did not allow a hit or a walk. The error is on Juan Uribe.

What's the minimum and why would that be a restriction? Isn't a pitcher considered to have a better outting if he faces less batters? This doesn't make sense to me.

Minimum is 3 batters per inning for 9 innings, 27. Because of the error, he faced 28. Therefore, not a perfect game.
