Justin just pitched a no hitter with 12 strikeouts against the Brewers. This guy is something special. Rookie of the Year last year and now All-Star this year maybe even CY Young

On the same day, Escobar struck out 14 in 6 innings. I really goes to show you how much luck is involved in a no-hitter.

Read in the paper today that the seagulls are going after millons of moths that have hatched and are attracted to the lights at the ball park.

Evidently the Brewers had the same problem and called in some people with labs (dogs) and hours before the game started they let dogs to chase after the seagulls. Well it must have worked for the Brewers because the grounds keeper for the Tigers called the grounds keeper for the Brewers. So the Tigers gounds keeper tried it before the game yesterday. They went so far as to put owl statues out but as you could tell it was not very successful.

way to raise a dead thread, I thought he freaking did it again. Then I looked at the date.
