Game 1 NLDS No Hitter GT: Halladay (1st CBP No Hitter)

Oh, and the no hitter will surely overshadow it but what in the fuckin hell was going on with the broadcast? (FTN's link to all the outs reminded me)

The echoing/clicking noise after every bat-to-ball contact in the first few innings.

The sound of the crowd turned WAYYYY down so we could hear TBS's awful announcers better.

What was going on?

Bodley

Before Wednesday, I'd covered 11 no-hitters, from Jim Bunning to Sandy Koufax to Nolan Ryan. Ironically, one of the 11 was the last time the Reds were no-hit -- by the Phillies' Rick Wise on June 23, 1971.

Wednesday's at delirious Citizens Bank Park was by far the best and most important I've seen as a reporter. I was in college when Larsen threw his perfect game against the Dodgers and watched on a snowy TV set.

Letting Roy Halladay loose against the National League this year was like locking a hungry wolf inside a garage full of kittens.

We couldn't have seen this coming, quite.

But we should have seen something like it.

Ibanez was the only player not to record a put out or assist in the game.

to me, one of the best things about these huge happenings the past 4 seasons is to wake up and watch the highlights again as if to see that it really did happen and it wasn't a dream.
Franzke's call is getting me near tears. the way he sets up the last pitch as if he knew it was the last one. he tells us the time and the the date marking history. his hesitation on the call just as we all held our collective breaths and then his elation. wow. just wow.

You can't blame him. Only 4 balls left the infield.

Can someone tell me what Ryan Madson is doing in 14?

Wait, never mind, it's "I'm in Love with a Wonderful Guy" from South Pacific.

Real piece of work

He was obviously watching Doc running stairs.

Nice of Halladay and his postseason no-hitter to provide an occasion to rip Amaro.

It's like these dorks are in love with their lab partner and Rube met her once and fucked her.

I think this Steve Goldman character is going to be a testament to the idea that sometimes good publications happen to have idiot writers.

BEST GAME EVER

by **WheelsFellOff** » Thu Oct 07, 2010 09:18:52

I kinda hope Halladay gets booed when he finally gives up a hit in his second NLCS start. But then everyone is like Jay Kay and gives him a standing O

Best part about last night was ordering a cheesesteak and a celebratory beer after Vic's two-run single and having it delivered in 10 minutes to my seat location. The tits (despite the cheesesteak being generic and subpar). Came with butterscotch krimpets tho.

I was not nervous at all, which was strange. I was like a kid anticipating christmas. I knew it was going to happen and I was giddy with excitement waiting for it to happen.

Unforgettable game. goddamn
