"Just" the Royals?  They're pretty good this year and batting .264 as a team.  It's a quality accomplishment, especially considering the Royals had only been no-hit once in the history of the franchise before tonight.

And as "feel good" as this story may be (which I downplay anyway since it's the Red Sox), we're going to need about 10 more cancer fighters to pitch perfect games and that guy with no legs to clean up in the Olympics to cancel out the Spurs advancing tonight.

One last thing for CF, why aren't you calling for Dusty Ba.., erm, Francona's head letting a 24 year old throw 130 pitches? Where's THAT on the stat line?

Just in case it's not obvious, I do realize you don't mess with a no-no.  Still funny.

I am a Yankee Fan.  But Congrats to Jon Lester .. after what that young man went thought the last couple years .. he deserved something good to happen like this ..  I may not like The Red Sox .. I may not watch Red Sox games .. I may not like 99.9% of The Red Sox players .. but I know when to acknowledge an accomplishment like a no hitter .. you deserved it Jon .. Congrats!! 

hey, I take offense to that........the Royals are actually playing well this year
the Cubs would be a minor league team if they were in the AL

Royals are the 11th best hitting team this year... Really impressive no-hitter.

My Yankees will finish in last place this year and they'll finish in last place for the next 5 years .. so what?  Where did I say in my comments that My Yankees were going to kick the Red Sox butts?  I didn't .. I do not like trash talk and I don't talk trash .. let the Red Sox win .. Good For Them .. I just won't be watching baseball after September ..

Sorry dude, just trying to have some small talk, and the Yanks won't be a cellar dwellar this or next year

azcardsfan wrote: No, I should be sorry, I was in a bad mood yesterday and I overracted to your comment.  Sorry.  But everything I said was true .. I hope The Yankees aren't cellar dwellars too long .. but it doesn't look good .. so I'm not getting my hopes up just so they can be crushed like they have been ever since 2001 .. oh well .. it's just a game .. again sorry to you too.
