Rich Hill had a no hitter against the Brewers going into the 8th. He had two outs in the inning and 11 strikeouts in the game when Bill Hall hit a solo homer to right field. Oh well, he probably wouldn't have made it all the way anyway because of the way stamina is in this game.

Ooh, tough. I've never done that before. I've never blown a no hitter or perfect game in the 9th.

Funny...

I got in to the bottom of the 8th last night with Tim Wakefield pitching a perfect game. It was broken up, though, with a screaming line drive double down the first base side--the only hit of the game! Damn!

I'm convinced the computer increases in difficulty the last AB if you have a pitching gem going. I had a perfect game going to the last out with a 1-1 count and threw a ridiculous slider as far outside of the batter as possible, he smoked it for a double by somehow hitting it from outside the strike zone. It was the relief pitcher with 3 contact too...

I've had back to back perfect games broken up in the 8th and 9th innings, respectively.
I had King Felix (F. Hernandez) and Josh Beckett on the mound.
I own with Felix.

I had a perfect game going into 8 1/3 with my MLB Life pitcher. Gave up a single to J.D. Drew. Finished a complete game 1 hitter with 18 strikeouts.

I've blown in 3 times in the 9th. Its the stupid message saying you are about to get a no-hitter! You should never mention a no-hitter till its happens!? I know their in Japan, but shoulden't they know this, it's one of the biggest rules in baseball. It always screws up my mentality.

I totally agree, the first time I was going for a no-hitter, I saw the message. I then got the first two out, and it made me think about the last out. (the #9 hitter hit a single up the middle) In real life, no one talks to him, and the team doesn't have a counter in the dugout.

Although when everyone is on the other side of the dugout you probably can guess. Unless you had onions last night. :lol:
