It’s rare, but it’s possible to throw a no-hitter and lose, as a minor league baseball team recently found out.
It happened in a Double-A game between the Reds affiliate the Chatanooga Lookouts and the Rocket City Trash Pandas (which, it must be said, is just a phenomenal name). It was the first game of a doubleheader and it looked like the Trash Pandas — an affiliate of the Los Angeles Angels — were going to win it handily.
Pitcher Coleman Crow through six scoreless innings and in that time he threw a pair of walks.
One of the strangest baseball games in history went down on Saturday in the minor leagues. The Reds’ Double A affiliate, the Chattanooga Lookouts, defeated the Rocket City Trash Pandas, 7-5. Those seven runs came despite the fact that the Lookouts were held without a hit during the ballgame.
The seventh inning of Saturday’s game is perhaps one of the most bizarre frames of baseball ever. Chattanooga racked up seven runs in the inning despite failing to record a single hit.
Sam Hughes might regret sharing her boyfriend’s $1,000 bet on her after her UFC 287 win.
Phillies right fielder Nick Castellanos got creative on the basepaths and it looked to play a role in helping his team mount a late comeback over the Cincinnati Reds.
It started with Castellanos, who drew a lead-off walk in the bottom of the ninth inning with the Phillies trailing 2-0. Then, with Alec Bohm at the plate, Reds righthander Alexis Diaz threw a wild pitch that allowed Castellanos to move to second base.
A quick mound visit didn’t do much to settle Diaz, because Bohm got a hold of a pitch and drove a single to center field. That moved Castellanos to third.
The XFL’s innovative rules have produced more than a few memorable highlights this year during the revived league’s comeback season. And, on Saturday, that unique brand of action yielded a moment for the XFL record books courtesy of a historic Week 8 win by the St. Louis Battlehawks.
Thanks to a thrilling 21–17 overtime win over the Vegas Vipers, the Battlehawks made history as the first XFL team to win a game in OT this season. St. Louis’s victory also allowed fans to finally get an exciting first glimpse at the league’s unconventional OT rules.
The Dallas Mavericks season took a turn when they acquired Kyrie Irving, and not in a good way.
Still, that doesn’t seem to have bothered Irving, who tweeted a Pokémon meme that seemed to imply he was at peace with the club’s floundering.
When the Mavericks traded for the embattled point guard, they were in fifth place in the NBA-s Western Conference. However, after the trade, they went into free-fall mode. The Mavs posted a 9-17 record after the Irving deal and were 8-13 with him in the lineup.
Gilbert Burns sees a title shot in his future if he defeats Jorge Masvidal.
“This is a test for me to get to the title,” says Burns. “Jorge is the next guy in my way.”
Burns fights Masvidal in the co-main event of tonight’s UFC 287, a bout with significant title implications in the welterweight division. Reigning champ Leon Edwards is tentatively scheduled to defend his title against Colby Covington, but a victory here should put Burns next in line for the winner of that bout.
“Jorge is going to be hungry,” says Burns. “It will take a lot of work to put him down.
