Cole Hamels Throws 13 Strikeout No Hitter

[Perknose]

In what is probably his last game as a Phillie. He no hit the Cubs, which hadn't been no hit in nearly their last 8,000 games, the longest streak the major leagues.

The last time the Cubs were no hit, it was 1965 and Sandy Koufax threw a perfect game against them.

Mr. Hamels, I salute you, sir. You were the MVP of our World Series win. I hope you get to go win another, even if it won't be with the sad sack Phils.

As a Met-fan I cannot share your joy.

I do however have a lot of respect for Hamels & hate the Cubs nearly as much as I do the Phils so its not a total loss!

😛 :awe:

Will be interesting to see where he ends up.

As a Cubs fan, all I can say is.... Fuck you for giving me the news.

Hum. Wow. Nice job, guy-I-never-heard-of-who-plays-a-sport-I-don't-follow. But seriously.

My brain kept trying to read "Camel Holes" like 3 times.

The last out was fantastic.

The last out was fantastic.

Clown college circus catch by a rule 5 guy who never played the outfield or saw the majors until this year, just learning on the job. 😛

Anybody else surprised the Cubs actually had a steak of something POSITIVE going on?
