Wonder if you got pissed when Scott Olsen took a no no into the 8th and Hudsen said afterward that Olsen didn't have "no hit stuff".

Hudson's a douche and no, Scott Olsen did not have "no-no" stuff. Hudson was just trying to save face.

I mean please like Ramon Ortiz is a no hit pitcher. He pitched a no-no into the 9th against the cardinals. He's no where near a no-no pitcher on any level on any universe.

He pitched a good game with lots of good luck

For who?

For the pitcher of course. Some great pitchers have not had no hitters and some very mediocre pitchers have. There's a lot of luck involved. Minor pitched a good game, but the Reds are gawd awful right now.

Besides point is moot, because the no hitter, shut out and lead are gone now anyway

So do they run who is, and who is not, no-hit quality by your first or let the MLB guys figure it out on the diamond.  To no-hit anyone at the MLB level is impressive as freak and anyone trying to undermine the ability surely has ulterior motives at the least.

LOL

Not sure what you're bellyaching about - Minor didn't get even get a no hitter tonight

If you can't see that luck plays a big part in a no hitter than I can't help you

Who was that other donkey that almost no hit the braves? Beachball Bergmann? Come on, doesn't that say more about the braves that day than Jason Bergmann? I mean they didn't call him beachball cause he was round ...

So when "good" pitchers get no-hitters they should be reigned upon but when anyone you don't think is good enough throws a no-hitter it is pure luck?  Child please.  Any MLB pitcher that throws a no-hitter against an MLB team should be respected if not more-so.

And yes, that includes Henderson Alverez's against the Tigers last year.

LOL at "pure luck" - love how you went from my "mostly luck" to "pure luck" feel free to make crap up as you go along. And don't child please me - Not all no nos are created equal. If you can't see that, that's your problem.

Getting no hit from Ramon Ortiz, Scott Olsen or Mike Minor would be embarrassing ...

Getting no hit from Kershaw - not so much

Again those good pitchers earn them in your opinion but those that you don't think are high caliber are luck.  There is no luck when throwing a no-hitter against a MLB team.  At all.

All no hitters involve some luck on some level - even when it's from Kershaw -

But gettiing no hit from a donkey like Jason Bergmann is more about the opponent than the pitcher.

Yusmiero Petit has had multiple near-miss no-hitters and Phil Humber succeeded in throwing a perfect game. 'Nuff said.

Any MLB starter is probably good enough to throw a no-no if they have the game of their life.

Even I had that one game in college where I could literally throw any pitch and knock a dime off the catcher's globe every single pitch. It only happened like that once in my entire life... 20 years of pitching. The dudes that actually make the bigs are not scrubs.

Meanwhile

The Twins score NINE runs against the Tigers in the bottom of the 6th inning - they were up to bat for forty five minutes - bwak lollers

That's crazy town

Welp, tonight's a wake up call to the Nats to nut up against the Braves because beating bad teams like a bully won't get you far.

This is what you get for depending on a crappy team like the Reds to win instead of taking care of your own damned business.
