Mets no-hitter alert

John Maine through seven innings.

There, I jinxed it.

 

*Sigh*

 

Ozzy, you know you're one of my faves here.

But I despise you for starting this thread.

 

Hey, someone did it to poor Scotty Baker.

(Don't think I've forgotten that, Doc...)

 

Sorry, man, but someone had to do it. Besides, I don't believe in jinxes. If he's going to throw one, he's going to throw one. I have nothing to do with it.

Besides, it's not like we avoided saying "no-hitter" on the baseball thread. We were talking about it in the open already.

 

Five outs to go...

 

Now four...

 

Over. Maine gave up an infield single with two outs in the eighth.

He's getting a standing ovation after striking out 15.

And Willie's going to the pig 'pen.

 

Way to nut up, John Maine.

Regardless of whether you're rooting for the Mets or not, that's a big game performance.

 

damn, nice showing by maine with the season on the line.

 

a swinging bunt. darn shame for maine.

meanwhile, no one will care if the phils win their last two. sorry, mets fans. that's the simple truth.

 

As the Phils go down, 1-0.
