Jonathan Sanchez: No no no no no no no no no no noooo!
There were a few things just about as likely as Jonathan Sanchez — he of the 2-8 record, 5.30 ERA and banishment to the bullpen — throwing a no-hitter tonight.
- Michael Jackson might have risen from the dead for one last moonwalk.
- Sea creatures might have swallowed Alcatraz.
- Amare Stoudemire could have announced he loves the Warriors and will trade himself here for a bag of potatoes.
- Mark Madsen might have been depressed about something.
This video really captures the moment: The final pitch, the dramatic out call from home plate umpire Brian Runge, and the cord-holder who trips over home plate in the rush to the mound. Oh my God, it happened! Whomp.
