Johan Santana has a no no through 7 versus the Cards (!!). Could be first in Mets history.

 

His pitch count is quite high though.

He needs quick outs

The Mets are one of the teams that I have always enjoyed watching and cheering on, and I have always been a firm believer in the talent of Johan Santana. I was really happy to see this. The Mets deserve a good year after everything they have been through.

R.A. Dickey thew a 1-hitter tonight that the Mets are trying to appeal so he would earn the teams second franchise no-hitter.

 

It came on what was scored a two-out infield single in the first inning by B.J. Upton, a ball on which David Wright was unable to field cleanly with his bare hand.

 

Terry Collins said afterward that the Mets will appeal to MLB to have the scoring decision changed to an error, although the manager conceded reversing the decision was a long shot. Dickey agreed, calling it a "Hail Mary."

Matt Cain threw a perfect game. 5 of the 22 in MLB history have come in the last 4 years. Weird.

Second one this season too.

I love Cain but Dickey's game was just as good if not better. Dickey only allowed one infield hit and and another baserunner reached on an error. Also he didn't require any spectacular plays from his defense. It's nice to see another knuckleballer doing so well.

Blanco's catch was great, but not spectacular. It was a long, low fly. A half-second more of a jump by Blanco when it hit the bat and it's a normal rundown. Cain struck out 14. No way any game played that day was better. Dickey's game was good but nowhere near as good.

Back to back 1-hitter's for Dickey and he's pitched 3 complete games in his last 4 starts. He's now 11-1 on the season. I have a strong feeling he's going to win the NL Cy Young this year, he's been simply magnificent.
