Oakland's Stewart breaks up Curt Schilling's no-hit bid w/ 2 outs in 9th

Re: Curt Schilling no-hitting the A's through seven

Jack Cust is next up. I would pay any amount of money to see him bunt for a hit.

 

Re: Curt Schilling no-hitting the A's through seven

Groundout. Five more...

 

Re: Curt Schilling no-hitting the A's through seven

Another. Four more... Will The Leader cut in for the ninth?

 

Re: Curt Schilling no-hitting the A's through eight

Through eight. This is the first time he's taken a no-hitter into the ninth inning.

To heck with ESPN. I've got mlb.tv.

 

Re: Curt Schilling no-hitting the A's through eight

Two of Oakland's scheduled ninth-inning batters are hitting under .200.

 

Re: Curt Schilling no-hitting the A's through eight

And he has no margin for error, leading just 1-0.

 

Re: Curt Schilling no-hitting the A's through eight

Sounds like time for a pinch hitter or two.

 

Re: Curt Schilling no-hitting the A's through eight

Do they have anybody better on the bench?

 

Re: Curt Schilling no-hitting the A's through eight

Milton Bradley, hitting .306, is available.

 

Re: Curt Schilling no-hitting the A's through eight

Probably have to hit for Kotsay...

and the leader breaks in. Live TV available on the Deuce.

 

Re: Curt Schilling no-hitting the A's through eight

Kotsay grounds out... Two more.

 

Re: Curt Schilling no-hitting the A's through eight

I can't bring myself to refer to ESPN by that "L" word.
