How Great was Garza’s No-Hitter!?!?!
It was pretty incredible last night seeing Matt Garza of the Tampa Bay Rays toss a nifty no hitter against the Detroit Tigers. It was the first no hitter in Tampa Bay Rays history, strangely enough though they’ve been a part of three no hitters this season (2 against, 1 for). Oakland A’s pitcher Dallas Braden had his perfect game against the Rays on Mother’s Day, then former Ray Edwin Jackson had a no hitter for the Arizona Diamondbacks against the Rays in Inter-league play and now Garza tosses the no-hit gem against the Tigers last night if you can believe it. It was a good game that was saved when Ben Zobrist made a huge catch in right field in the early innings on a ball lined over his head where he made a leaping stab of it going back toward the wall. You’ve always gotta love watching a no hitter! You get into the seventh and then you get all the media outlets starting to report on it, like ESPN will say Matt Garza has a no hitter into the seventh, then they’ll do another post after the seventh. Then they do one in the eighth and one after the eighth. Then they do one in the ninth and then again if the guy got it done. Usually when people start talking about a no hitter in the seventh inning the guy gets lit up and somebody gets a hit to ruin it. It just seems like there is weird karma working against the pitcher every time a guy’s close and someone mentions “hey, this guy’s got a no hitter in the eighth inning.” Then boom, next guy will get the hit to break it up. But that didn’t happen last night, Garza closed the deal in the ninth inning and his fans went nuts in the stands and his teammates mobbed him on the field. He got a pie in the face afterwards. I say that it’s nice to go to work on a Monday night, to start the workweek off, and see a guy toss a no hitter. It definitely made the show kick ass. It was good having Bill Romanowski on the show last night and talking a little NFL football as we get fired up now that all the camps are opening up. I’m going out to dinner with my boss tonight at 5PM East (2PM West) right before the show, that should be interesting. The show’s at 8PM East (5PM West) on Sirius XM’s Howard 101! See you then. Shake it up!!
