Interesting. And I’m glad the manager left him in in the 7th inning, but you know that’s because he had a no-hitter going. I long for the days when the pitchers pitched the whole game routinely.

Verlander pitches a lot of complete games and I suspect he’ll be doing it for a while. There’s no violence in his motions which is where most pitchers injure themselves.

Jim Leyland calls him a horse.

It would have been Verlander’s 3rd no hitter. Last year he pitch the no hitter and turned right around a couple of weeks later and went into the 9th inning with no hits.
