2010 MLB Season Discussion

[Ryany]

This year is crazy.

[Kyo]

Congratz to Matt Garza, first no hitter in team history.

[Kurp]

It's about time they get one after they've been no-hit so many times.

[Cephius]

Year of the pitcher continues... grats to Garza, really nice guy and underrated pitcher.

[Omnipotent]

Great stuff, always liked him as a pitcher.

[Zoolander]

Hell yea! Garza is a guy who tends to struggle early on but once he gets settled he is outstanding, really glad to see him get this. Fuck yessss

Only walked one guy too, and faced minimum number of hitters. That is as good of a no hitter as you can get lol.

[Akiyama]

Yeah, grats to Garza! Dude deserved it for sure.

[Kurp]

God damn, the Twins are raping the Royals. I'm almost starting to feel bad for them.

[Akiyama]

I'm not. Free win for Liriano.

[Cephius]

God damn, the Twins are raping the Royals. I'm almost starting to feel bad for them.

I just saw that. 17-0 lol? And didn't Greinke start today? Man, that lineup is seriously death on righties.

[Viq]

When's Garza gonna throw a no-spitter, am I right? /rimshot

Seriously though, this guy's stuff has been so good for a few years now. It was only a matter of time for him, so I'm glad he was able to make it happen.

[Kurp]

Grienke gave up 8 runs in 4 innings including a grand slam by Danny Valencia in the first. It was his first career HR.

[Aksannyi]

I'm annoyed that something great happens like a Rays no-hitter and I've just recently moved and I am without cable until Saturday. Goddamn it.

Grats to him, for sure, but fuck me, why do I always miss this shit.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL And you thought Kendry Morales' injury was bad:

Pie gone awry: Marlins' Coghlan tears up knee in cream pie attack

By David Brown

We are through the looking glass on these postgame celebrations, people. We have our first injury caused by someone giving a shaving-cream pie to the face.

Florida Marlins outfielder Chris Coghlan(notes) tore the meniscus in his left knee, and is headed for the disabled list after he face-pied teammate Wes Helms(notes) during a TV interview Sunday.

Those of you who bet on Yankees right-hander A.J. Burnett(notes) being the winning horse in the "Shaving-Cream Pie Injury Pool?" Sorry, it's a surprise to a lot of us, too.

[Photos: See Chris Coghlan in action]

Helms knocked in the winning run with a game-ending single against the Atlanta Braves on Sunday, capping a barely believable week that featured four victories in the Marlins' last at-bat.

Fun, right? Yeah, it's all fun and games until somebody — namely the 2009 NL Rookie of the Year — gets hurt in unbelievable fashion.

Via the Twitter of MLB.com's Joe Frisaro:

"When Wes hit the walk-off, I went to pie him in the face," Coghlan said. "When I jumped, I landed wrong on my knee."

Facepalm >>> face pie.

Watch the incident

If Coghlan needs surgery, he'll miss 6-8 weeks.

Perhaps this was inevitable, given that we're already living in the Year of the Pitcher Strange Injury.

Kendry Morales(notes) already broke his leg — broke it, for crying out loud — jumping on home plate as the Los Angeles Angels celebrated his game-ending home run earlier this season. This season has featured a series of oddball injuries, come to think of it.

This one's just the first including postgame pie. And the last one for the Marlins. Manager Edwin Rodriguez has outlawed the half-baked practice.

"It's very humbling when the game is taken away and you don't realize it because you play every day," Coghlan said. "If you ever get injured you want to do it while you're out there competing, not when you're celebrating. Emotions get the best of you, you're excited. There's nothing wrong with that but be a little smarter when you're celebrating a win."

Knowin' is half the battle.

The player of the game often finds himself vulnerable to attack during the postgame interview, but Helms — a wily veteran — seemed ready for Coghlan this time. That's reason alone why the rest of the major leagues should follow the Marlins directive and ban the practice. It's not anything new and it's not anything resembling a surprise.

[Melena]

And Dan Haren gets hurt in his first start with the Angels. Bet the Yankee's are glad they lost out on that. He should make his next start, but Anaheim, it's an omen.
