This is crazy, this is crazy, this is crazy.

 

[The Nemesis]

And there it goes.

 

[phillipmike]

So i jinxed it

 

[The Nemesis]

He doesn't get the no-hitter, but that's still a dream start especially for a guy that struggled early in the year

You should've gotten in the shower.

 

[canucksfan]

f***!

He was likely getting tired. Credit to Schneider for letting him try.

 

[EpochLink]

Of course

 

[MS]

Noooooo

Glad they let him go for it.

Can the baseball gods explain why we are not allowed a no hitter being thrown by our team?

 

[jetsforever]

Darn, had a great run though
Is Francis ...good now?

 

[Forgotusername]

Great run Francis is on. Too bad he couldn't finish it today, but great start

He definitely has improved. He has been facing weaker competition. Will be interesting to see his next few starts where the competition is more difficult.

He started this great run with an excellent start against Baltimore.

Even against weaker competition, most starters don't have a stretch like this.

For sure. My comment was more of I am curious to see how he does against tougher competition.

I swear, I’ve seen about 15 no-hitters go into the 8th-9th inning in a Jays game in my lifetime and we’ve blown every one and the other team has completed every one.

You know what you did.

It’s fair, given some of the struggles this year.
But if you look at the last two seasons, he’s had two rough mlb months, six very good ones, and demolished AAA in between.
Good k rates the whole time.
A bit more consistency and he’s a pretty special dude.

His ERA 4 games ago was 5.64. I sure hope he’s figured something out because he has been spectacular his last three starts. That great splitter he’s introduced has really helped.

The splitter with his rising fastball .. been deadly. If he gets a third pitch, sky is the limit.

I'm guessing this will be on the white board today.

Didn’t take long to show up!

 

[TMLeafer]

Outrageous strike call against kirk.

 

[Eyedea]

Wow that 2-0 strike to Kirk was terrible. Like one of the worst of the season bad.

At least he drew the walk later on
