That’s our boy. Papa Grande has been pretty spectacular in his own right.
At least twice beyond the no hitter Verlander has gone 8 innings without giving up a hit this season.
He’s really focused on the hitter, which is the mark of a great pitcher. A lot of pitchers get rattled by men on base, but that’s something for the catcher and the infield to worry about. Verlander’s average Ks per game are over 10. I should go somewhere (like a restaurant) just to watch the games, which are cable-only, at least in Michigan.
