Man. This chat must’ve been really boring. Every comment is about re-CAPTCHAs and home runs by pitchers. That’s the best we could come up with to talk about? Oh… And what the hell is a “Ghost Win?”
Fever Pitch Guy
Mad Bum hit two homers in one game on Opening Day, the first ever pitcher to do so.
Wainwright hit a homerun on the first-ever pitch he saw in the majors.
Greinke hit two homeruns in consecutive at bats.
Arrieta hit a homerun in the 2016 postseason.
Thor hit a homerun in a 1-0 complete game shutout.
I remember reading about that in next days (afternoon!) Laredo Times.
Way before cable. Why couldn’t he do it during the Saturday Game of the Week!
Memories…..
Lolich hit a homer in game 2 of the ’68 world series. His only career home run. Had a career average of .110. Hit .250 in the world series. In game 7 he picked off Lou Brock and Curt Flood in the 6th inning. 3 and 0 in the WS with and era under 2.00. Quite the performance in the WS.
My least favorite Re-CAPTCHA is definitely the “Select the BRIDGES” one, because almost every ‘bridge’ picture shown is actually an overpass. I feel like someone’s just messin’ with me.
Braves pitcher Tony Cloninger hit two grand slams and had 9 RBI in a 1966 game against the Giants at Candlestick Park.
Sometimes the blind squirrel finds the nut…..
I saw Strasburg have a 2 home game a chance couple seasons ago. Not sure if any were grand slams.

In June of 1971 Rick Wise hit two home runs while throwing a no-hitter. Have a day!

Bob Gibson homered in 1967 WS game 7.
Sorry I missed your chat Mark.
This lockout and the threat of WW3 is making me more and more depressed.
Nothing matters anymore…..
Plenty of things still matter.
Kershaw hit a home run and shut out the Giants 1-0 on Opening Day 2013.
Didn’t Kerry wood and arrieta go yard in playoff games (different games)
Felix Hernandez hit a grand slam
