I'm going to have to reneg on that since I just looked at their schedule and they still have at least 12 games left against the Mets. Six games under .500. Should've looked at that earlier.

Jon Lester just threw a no-no against the Royals.

After beating cancer (lymphoma, non-Hodgkins) this may not be the biggest moment of his life.

What a millenium for Red Sox no-hitters. Nothing from 1965-2001, this is now their 4th in 7 years.

So good, this Red Sox starter Jon Lester.

It's also the first no-no by a Red Sox lefty since 1956. I love baseball because of facts like these.

Well Mr. Burns had done it
The power plant had won it
With Roger Clemens clucking all the while
Mike Scioscia's tragic illness made us smile
While Wade Boggs lay unconscious on the barroom tile

We're talkin' softball
From Maine to San Diego.
Talkin' softball
Mattingly and Canseco
Ken Griffey's grotesquely swollen jaw
Steve Sax and his run-in with the law
We're talkin' Homer...Ozzie and the Straw

But he shares it. Ewww.


This is off topic, but I saw a billboard for Charmin the other day that had a headline "Thong sales are up" and then in smaller print "among men."

Back on topic: Jon Lester -- what a comeback story. And that catch by Jim Edmonds last night along with the inside the park homer by Geo Soto -- a catcher, no less -- made for one great night of baseball.

I dvr'd the ESPN broadcast of the Cubs game last night (didn't know it was on CSN like a dumbass...) and had to miss the bottom half of the 7th so they could show the final last half-inning of the no-no in its entirety. WTF. Who gives a shit. ESPN's already cutting into the broadcast and showing or talking about anything BUT the game being played for like half the broadcast. Then on account of the slowpoke Ted LIlly, the game goes past the schedule, so I miss the end of the game. At least Joe Morgan wasn't on the premises and Orel Hersheiser was, so there was at least somebody into baseball on the broadcast team.

This really bugged the shit out of me. You know, espn, the rest of the country does not have as much of an affinity to the yankees and red sox as you do. I enjoy seeing no-hitters, but put a picture-in-picture on the screen when you are broadcasting a game that is three to two at the time when you interrupt it. Or show me constant updates on the screen for the game that you have interrupted, which you failed to do. When you do go to the no-hitter, put the game I was watching back on once the third out is made, which you failed to do. Really fucking annoying.

Since your dvr ran out, the cubs won 7-2.
