[Edgy MD]

Zvon, you got any of those coolio KABOOM images?

On edit: Welcome back, buddy.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Stupid lucky unsustainable 2 out runs.

[Frayed Knot]

Last year we'd go weeks it seemed between RCF shots like that (HRs or almost) from Wright.
This year it seems like we're getting two per game.

Welcome back Zvon..

Dickey should start the all star game..

[Zvon]

Dickey with this spike in Ks lately , I likey. And the control...
Also read after his last outing how the ump said he never saw a ball doing what Dickeys knuckler was doing. This is special stuff. He is takin it to another level.

TY Ashie62.

[Lefty Specialist]

You know, I could get used to this.

Then something I think I'd wrong, "I have never met Johan personally", also I remember an SNY show with Cohen interviewing Seaver and Johan together with Darling I think? After his first season, IIRC. Honest mistake, or sly passive-aggressive dig from the winemeister?

that was clearly viewed as professionally.

Dickey is awesome too.

[Guest Mets � Willets Point]

Complete game shutout? Ho-hum!

[Ceetar]

round the league scoreboard update on Yanks broadcast (drove 2 minutes to get pizza) Suzyn noted the strikeouts and the 8-1 record. Sterling: "Most underrated pitcher in baseball"

[Ceetar]

But if you think that's impressive, you ain't seen nothin' yet. Dickey extended his winning streak to three straight starts, a rather humble run of success ... unless you consider that he struck out 30 batters and walked only one in those games. Only six other pitchers in major-league history posted wins in three straight starts, recording at least 30 strikeouts and walking fewer than two batters. That impressive list includes not only the aforementioned Santana, but also Walter Johnson, Bert Blyleven, Frank Tanana, Mike Mussina, and Pedro Martinez, who did it twice.

Rareified Air Dickey.
