Rich Potter of Cleveland had a no-no going with 2 outs in the bottom of the 8th when Jim Andrus pinched hit for Baltimore pitcher Hartzell (who was throwing a one hitter himself) Andrus jacked a two run bomb to send the home fans home happy.

Re: no hitter denied
Good week for ex-Baltimore players as well:
Dave Skidmore made his 1st start for another team after 3000+ IP with Baltimore and proceeds to allow 0 earned runs and career win #198.
Aiden Abetting has made 3 appearances and managed 4 IP without allowing a run yet. He might not make his 1st All-Star appearance since I won't have him closing, but if he continues to hold hitters to a .562 OPS, he will certainly be in the running even without the saves.

glad to see Skid still has a bit left in the tank. Aiden is having a career year for sure - but as I wasn't going anyplace anytime soon, decided to get what value I could for them - solid OF prospect and perhaps a 5th starter out of the deal - about what you'd expect for these ageing players - still wondering if Espy isn't going to turn himself around being in the other league... all I know is that he was sure sucking this season in the AL (and he's no spring chicken either).

Re: no hitter denied
My plan for Espino is to use him out of the pen. It hasn't paid off yet, but hopefully it will eventually. Since I don't have the strongest of rotations, I really wanted to get a good stable of relievers. If Espino can pitch up to his grades, I will use the combo of Espino-Abetting-Terwillger-Post as a way to hold the leads my offense has been able to typically put up.maxthesax wrote: ↑Tue Apr 17, 2018 12:24 am glad to see Skid still has a bit left in the tank.
