I'm a baseball fan and I like to see baseball history. I usually root for no-hitters. But yesterday afternoon, when Shannon Stewart lined a single to right to break up Curt Schilling's no-hit bid with two outs in the ninth, I let out a "Yeah!" and a fist pump.
Maybe I didn't want to see a no-hitter against the A's. Maybe it makes me feel better that they got one-hit instead of no-hit. But most of all, they still had a legitimate chance to win the game at that point.
Alas, it was not to be. And poor Joe Blanton has pitched 16 1/3 innings in his last two starts but only gotten one run of support.
Here's hoping for more than one hit off Tim Lincecum tonight. (Have you seen him? He looks like he's 9!!!!)
