    Philly's WTF ???

    You are in last place going nowhere. Your pitcher is in the seventh inning with 104 pitches. He is throwing a NO-HITTER !!!!!!!!!!!!! You are WINNIG 2-0 !!!! And you pinch hit for the guy ????? Are you serious ?????? I know he had walked 5 guys, but they were still winning and not going anywhere !!!!! The manager should be ashamed !!!!! Cole should be going somewhere else after this season. The Red Sox and 12 other teams could use him.

    No use trying to blow out his arm. He was over 110 pitches

    Is there a rule that says you can't pitch more than 100-110???? I used to see Clemens, Seaver, Nolan Ryan etc. etc. etc. and the list goes on & on. Taking a guy out in the middle of a no-hitter with a team going nowhere??? Sorry folks, can't agree with you on this one.

    The team pitched a no hitter as a whole. Nowadays with so many tommy john surgeries and it was hot as shit out there. They aren't playing for anything, not worth the risk to kill ur ace for a simple record. Maybe if he had 1 more inning to go, but not 3 whole innings

    Still don't agree. He has the entire off season. Besides, if he gave up a hit then lift him .

    He had no shot at a complete game the way he was laboring. It would be really stupid to try to force him deep into the game in that spot. like you said a team going nowhere....
