Kinda weird but

Edwin Jackson throwing the ugliest no no against the same team Braden did.

Could you walk or throw more pitches and still get it ??? I doubt it.

I remember that day like it was yesterday.

Ahhhhhhh...alright. My mistake. I remember that one a little better now but not as well as the others.

Speaking of the Giants...

I remember when they were on the brink of sweeping the Phillies. They were leading going into the 9th and Brian Wilson blew the save. It doesn't happen often and I remember losing that one. It was terrible. They almost came back in extras after the Phillies took the lead. It was a very depressing afternoon.

I still have this vision in front of me

Kendry Morales walk off grand slam home run where he then turns into a 220 lb. ballerina  breaks his leg jumping into the air with a pirouette and landing badly on home plate.

And with it any chance for the Angels to compete this year.

I think I'll add the grand slam from Kubel against Mariano to blow the save. 2 unthinkable feats. Mariano blowing a save and the Twins winning in the Bronx.

Good call.....I sat in my chair in disbelief for about 30 minutes.

The Cubs when they were really really struggling (when Lou was there) and had that really anemic offense and then all of a sudden blasted the shit out of Roy Halladay (who was at the peak point of his season) sticks out for me....

Oh and also Bautista

Too bad that was his only impactful game. I was expecting something special but they never even made him the every day starting catcher. With Buck on the DL...they should have given him a shot.

You know what I remember more though? The very next game. 26 outs without allowing a hit. 18 Strikeouts. Beyond impressive. Possibly the best pitched game all season. To do all that and win 1-0. I actually think it was more impressive than any perfect game or no hitter this season.

While in the midst of a playoff chase. Matt Latos 1.1 inninigs pitched  gives up 9 hits ,8 runs and 2 walks against a team that I had been watching get shut down by every 5 plus era starting pitcher in the last month. The Cards. Was just sickening to watch.,

Oh man Sparky...I was at that game...I felt your pain so bad. Lincecum was absolutely DOMINATING that game and we were so shocked that Bochy took him out in the 9th because he was still throwing so well, and only had like 108 pitches or something going into the 9th.

I mean you can't really blame Wilson I guess; the guy has been nails all year long, and if I remember correctly, the double that Werth hit off Wilson was a total jam shot that shattered his bat and Nate Schierholtz just couldn't get to the ball in time.

Ouch, you are opening up fresh wounds for me. Ha!
