Nice little bobble at 3rd to add some drama.

I wanted someone to break it up because I've never seen that happen.

But good for Cain. He almost hit two guys in the last two innings.

Some crazy tough defensive plays behind him. 4 of the last 11 outs were dramatic...

It's up there, insane amount of K's to also be perfect and go the entire 9. It was at home against a bad hitting team though...

Then should they take Santana's away since Beltran hit the line?

That'd be hilarious.

"After further review, we've decided that Dickey's no-hitter was legit and the team's first ever!"

"Uh...this is our second...just in a couple weeks."

"Oh, dude...forgot to tell you that we also reviewed Johan's. Not legit anymore, guys!"

Santana would then murder Dickey.

I think he's only made 1 very early in his career, typically puts up better numbers in the 2nd half.

It's a crime he's never been in the HR Derby....I mean c'mon man. I hope he does the derby and hits about 14 monster bombs and then swing and miss on purpose for out 8-10 and then own the moment.

His only AB was late in the game and he looked like he killed it but just missed to the warning track.

Had 19 SB that year....sure

Totally agree. And somewhat surprised he's only made 1. For as many 40/100 and high OBP years he had would have thought he'd have made more than 1.

But him in the HR derby would be awesome.

Lol....baseball is unpredictable

One of THE very best pitchers in baseball (lefty) and one of THE biggest whiffers ever, and especially against lefties.

Tonight the White Sox are at Dodgers...no DH and Clayton Kershaw pitching and you'd assume Adam Dunn would be out of the lineup...

Dunn is 7 for 11 off of Kershaw with 3 HR. No way.
