Wow, incredible. This morning people were saying that this was probably Liriano's last chance and he goes out and gets a no-hitter. A 2 K 6 BB no-hitter but still a no-no

Turning point......?

That was fun to watch. Sort of amazing, a no no with 2 SOs! I didnt realize he has never even pitched a complete game before, I guess not surprizing with Guardy as his manager, had he given up even 1 hit, Guardy would have pulled him in the 7th probably.

That last liner to Tolbert (I think Tolbert caught it), was hit HARD, I thought it was going to squeek thru. And that play by Valencia an inning or two earlier was an AWESOME play, probably the play of the game IMO.

I was anticipating more of an arguement from Ozzie on that missed tag at 1st, he was clearly safe. He didnt even really argue, which was surprizing I thought.

I'm glad something good happened this season, and the fact that the no hitter came against CWS makes it that much sweeter :)

I think I remember the commentators saying that Ozzie didn't have a good view from where he was standing in the dugout. Regardless, I don't think Ozzie gives a #### anymore. I would be surprised if he makes it through the season. Knowing him, it will be entertaining.

He probably wont make the season, I hope Guardy doesnt either, Id take Ozzie! Even when things are bad, they would be entertaining.
