AKA what basically is the /u/foolishbaseball / Summoning Salt collab I didn't know I wanted.
I LOVE when pitchers go out there and act like they have somewhere else to be. I know im dramatic as hell but i feel borderline disrespected when David Price goes up there and wastes my time to the tune of 1 pitch per 30 seconds
Buehrle taking those unearned runs accidentally generated a secondary Buehrle fun fact
Mark Buehrle twice had starts where he went 8 innings, gave up 0 ER and took the loss. 5/2/2008 pitching for the White Sox against the Blue Jays, and 7/6/2015 pitching for the Blue Jays against the White Sox
This guy posts great quality content. He gets some attention and views, but not nearly as much he deserves. So glad heβs out with another video
Are there separate categories for Any% and 100% (full 9-inning games)?
Belongs in the Hall. I'll die on that hill.
In that 1:39 game against the Mariners, the two teams combined for only 8 baserunners, and Ichiro accounted for all 3 of the Mariners' hits. Buehrle and Franklin threw fewer than 200 pitches between the two of them. The only runs that scored in the game were from two solo homers by Paul Konerko and from Ichiro tripling and then scoring on a groundout.
Here's all 10 of Buehrle's sub-2 hr games, plus one game he pitched that was ended after 6 innings due to rain but technically was less than 2 hours long. Some other notes:
My favorite stat about my favorite pitcher: Ninety pitchers in MLB history have thrown a nine-inning complete game while facing the minimum 27 batters. Walter Johnson did it twice. Cy Young did it twice. Sandy Koufax did it twice.
Mark Buehrle did it three times.
In high school I answered the door to a knock. It was Mark Buehrle. He and his buddy got their truck stuck hunting. Had to get a tractor to pull them out.
This would have been in 2000 or 01 so he was not yet a household name. Dad told me "that guy I just pulled out of the ditch said he pitches for the White Sox".
I always wondered if Buehrle remembered that.
