That was made unnecessarily interesting by Tris Crosby and Lawton.

105 pitches and one out from a CG shutout. I love Aaron Small.

203. EB Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:30 PM (#1595795)

Who was the last Yankee to pitch a complete game shutout?

Save this question. A few months from now it will be a difficult question.

204. SG Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:31 PM (#1595798)

Aaron Small kicks major ass. Huge win.

205. incarnadine Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:31 PM (#1595800)

Aaron Small = God

206. incarnadine Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:32 PM (#1595801)

Go Huskies!

207. Orin Incandenza Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:32 PM (#1595802)

Hot damn. 3Ks on the day.

208. SG Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:33 PM (#1595804)

Any minute now Darren should be showing up to whine about Small getting lucky for the sixth straight start. 6-0, with a 2.42 ERA.

209. Biff, highly-regarded young guy Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:35 PM (#1595811)

Complete game shutout for Small? That's a frickin' joke, right?

210. EB Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:35 PM (#1595812)

Any minute now Darren should be showing up to whine about Small getting lucky for the sixth straight start. 6-0, with a 2.42 ERA.

Who was it who said, "I'd rather be lucky than good" ?

211. incarnadine Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:37 PM (#1595814)

You've got to feel good for Small. How awesome must it be to succeed at this level, on this stage, for the first time at an advanced (for baseball) age?

212. SG Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:38 PM (#1595818)

Small may be getting lucky, in fact, he probably he is, but it's nice to see him get a reward for kicking around the minors for basically the last 7 years.

213. Biff, highly-regarded young guy Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:39 PM (#1595819)

Any minute now <strike>Darren</strike> should be showing up to whine about Small getting lucky for the sixth straight start. 6-0, with a 2.42 ERA.

Fixed your post.

214. Biff, highly-regarded young guy Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:39 PM (#1595821)

There was supposed to be a "Biff" after I crossed out Darren, but I missed it.

Ironic that my "fixed your post" needs fixing.

215. SG Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:40 PM (#1595822)

Complete game shutout for Small? That’s a frickin’ joke, right?

And Biff takes the "Darren" award.

216. Biff, highly-regarded young guy Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:41 PM (#1595824)

In all fairness, I've probably complained at least as much about Small as Darren has.

Aaron Small. 21 K, 15 BB in 44.2 IP behind the Yankees defense.

2.42 ERA.

Mind-boggling.

217. The Original SJ Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:44 PM (#1595831)

Aaron Small is amazing.

218. SG Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:47 PM (#1595839)

I'll confess: I watched college football instead.

But conrats to Rudy on his SHO.

220. . . . . . . Posted: September 03, 2005 at 10:58 PM (#1595855)

221. RB in NYC (Now Semi-Retired from BBTF) Posted: September 04, 2005 at 04:03 AM (#1596491)
