He doesn't usually blow up like that. It's more of a slow bloodlet with 2 starts of 6 runs in 5 innings then a start with 6 runs in 4.I see we're at the point in the Phillies season where Velasquez has a couple good games and its all "Wow, he may finally be putting it together." and then awaits the 8 run in 1.2 IP start
That is a good one. Pedro had a game in 1999 where he allowed only one hit (solo homreun) and 17 strikeouts. Faced 28 batters. Scherzer's no hitter against the Mets. Struck out 17 and only faced 28, it was an error. Kershaw's no hitter, struck out 15 and an error was the only baserunner. Lincecum in the playoffs against Atlanta. Im sure Sandy Koufax had a bunch too.Just curious what everyone thinks is the best single game pitching performance?
Personally I think it’s Kerry Woods 20 k, 1 hitter
Halladay playoffs no hitter.Just curious what everyone thinks is the best single game pitching performance?

I was thinking about that Scherzer game as well. I view it as a perfect game as an error shouldn’t be used against him. I think the best performances are a balance of few base runners and high strikeouts. Personally I am more impressed by 15+ strikeouts than a perfect game such as Braden’s or Buehrle’s.That is a good one.

The 18 k game is as good a pitching performance as you’ll see that won’t go into the record books as a perfect game, no hitter, 20 k game or even a complete gameKluber had a game where he only pitched 8 but struckout 18 and allowed one hit. He also had two consecutive games the previous year where he went all nine and only faced 28 batters.
Who was it that threw like 160 pitches in a ~6 walk no hitter in 2010s? Cueto? That was wild lol
That's definitely him. 8 walks lol, just looked it up to verifyEdwin Jackson?
