Simply amazing.

Saw a Tweet that the last back-to-back CG shutouts was over 20 years ago in 1989.

The only thing wrong with the Rally Onion is that I didn't come up with it.

It's good to see the Reds playing well with the Cards up next.

Heck, I may have seen one of them too. Just not realizing the pitch counts. Oh well. Impressive regardless. Hopefully this is the beginning of my sig coming to fruition. :O)

Re: Reds vs Pirates 5/12/10 Game Thread (aka "Legend of the Rally Onion")

i work nights. after waking up & eating breakfast i checked out the game. which was already over. wow.

whichever aliens captured Johnny & Homer you may keep them. we'll keep the dopplegangers you put in their place.

huge sweep for a few reasons.
1.evenge on the Bucs for sweeping us.
2. good teams need to beat up on the weak ones
3. we gain on the Cards who are coming into town this weekend. big series. if we take 2 of 3 from the Cards RedsZone may explode!

Yeah, I just noticed that too. It's obviously much more common that I thought. I just never really took as much notice on pitch counts with regards to complete games. I usually paid more attention to the other counting stats for the pitcher.
