What ever happened to Shingo, the guy who was with the mets?
The Elias Sports Bureau didn't call Dave Steib the Murphy's Law of no-hitters for nothing.In his second-last start of 1988, Steib got to two out in the 9th inning in a game played in Cleveland, when, with a 2-2 count, Julio Franco hit a ball that bounced way over Manny Lee's head for a single.
Six days later, in Toronto, against Baltimore, and again with 2 out in the 9th and a 2-2 count against him, Jim Traber, pinch hitting for Craig Worthington, hit a line drive over Fred McGriff's outstretched arm that fell in for a hit.
On August 4, 1989, having set down 26 straight batters, and with a 2-0 count on Roberto Kelly, Kelly hit a double to left field. To this day, I contend that if there had been a real left fielder out there, instead of George Bell, the game would have been over.
In his last column for 1989, a local (Toronto) sports writer had a wish list for a number of professoinal athletes. His wish for Dave Steib was the 27th out. Steib finally got that, in Cleveland, Sep 2, 1990.
Nolan Ryan had 5 no-no bids broken up in the 9th, and I think two of them were with 2 out.
For sens enforcer, wrong. That was Halladay's SECOND career appearance and start.
Michael C, imitation may be the sincerest form of flattery, but plagerism is another matter entirely. You've been reported for it.

Brian Holman of the 1990 Seattle Mariners had a PERFECT game going into the 9th inning with 2 outs and in stepped Pinch Hitter Kenny Phelps of the Oakland Athletics. With the Mariners up I believe it was like 5-0 and Phelps hit a 2 out Solo HR to right and then Holman got the final out to get a 1 hitter.What is your opinion on the Reds' Derrik Lutz?
as you have read... it has happened multiple times.this topic reminds me of the time Ben Davis broke up Curt Schilling's no hit bid for the D-Backs against the Padres with a drag bunt in the 8th inning. Schilling wasn't happy and called the move "Busch League".
As a Diamondbacks fan, I remember that well, and will forever dislike Ben Davis. =(
It's not that bad, no more than giving up 1 hit in the 4th or 5th inning and realizing after the game how close you were. You still had a great game so the disappointment goes away pretty fast. The worst I have ever seen was a high school kid I coached who through a no hitter, walked 4 consecutive hitters and lost 1-0. I threw a Lou Piniella and was asked to leave prior to the end of the game.. but the umpire sucked on those calls and just took it away from a kid who had his best game. The next day I was devastated and that kid just told me that we should've scored more runs and it wouldn't have been a problem.
So if you only focus on the mistakes or the one mistake instead of the positives of what you accomplished, it makes a great game seem bad - but in reality good players think of how great they played and not the one play that got away.
Who has the most home runs in a week in MLB?
I'll do you one better. 1959. Harvey haddix, Pittsburgh at Milwaukee.He pitched 12 perfect innings, but the score was 0-0.
In the13th,Braves batting, 2 runners got on( error, walk), then Joe Adcock hit a 3 run homer, and harvey lost the game 3-0.
BUT, Joe Adcock passed a runner on base, which caused him to be out.
The score was later changed to be 1-0, and Adcock got credit for a double..

Does anyone remember Jim Lonborg? It was his first career start and he had a perfect game going into the ninth, then some guy hit a long flyball to deep center field for any other center fielder this would have been a double, but not for Carl Yaztrsemski. Made made an amazing over the shoulder catch while doing a sort of backflip for the first out in the ninth. But then once there were two outs in the ninth Lonborg let up his first major league hit to end the no hitter.Mike Mussina against them STINKIN RED SOX!!.see you "mullets" tomorrow at Fenway!!.GO YANKEES!
