Highlight From Today's Win (8/30/09)
I loved seeing this:
The Royals' Zack Greinke followed up a 15-strikeout start with a complete game one-hitter on Sunday. He is just the fourth pitcher to do that since 1900. The other three:
• Pedro Martinez -- Sept. 4, 1999 (15 Ks) and Sept. 10, 1999 (1-hitter, 17 Ks).
• Randy Johnson -- July 11, 1998 (15 Ks) and July 16, 1998 (1-hitter, 11 Ks).
• Vida Blue -- July 9, 1971 (17 Ks) and July 16, 1971 (1-hitter, 9 Ks).
Whenever you're on a list with Vida Blue, Pedro, and Randy Johnson, something's going right.
I'm getting the feeling that "third-place Cy Young voting run" is underestimating things. - TL
