August 26, 2020: No No

posted in: White Sox | 0

I couldn’t use Giolit-no. That was a good one on the back page of the Chicago Sun Times. I always love those catchy titles; I try to use those in each of my blogs. I know no no is kind of boring… but it’ll have to do.

I was watching the Cubs of course. After giving up the grand slam to the Tigers in the 7th, down 7-0, I was just sitting there taking my medicine, a gluttony for punishment, prepared to watch the final 2 innings. Then I got a text message: 1st no no almost complete. I was like, who? He said: White Sox pitcher. I was like, hey, I can watch that game. I flipped onto Comcast Sports…. or NBC sports… or whatever it’s called nowadays. The guy that sent me the text is my buddy from LA; he’s not a Sox fan. He was interested because he has Giolito on his fantasy team, and a no hitter… man, that’s HUGE points. I honestly don’t care who the pitcher is or what team he plays for, seeing a no hitter is always cool. I picked it up in the 8th inning.

I didn’t care that it was the White Sox. Fresh off hating them for a weekend, even more so because they kicked our ass, it was a potential no hitter for God’s sake; I needed to watch. Plus, since it wasn’t my team, there was no pressure of jinxing it. Lucas looked flat out dominant in that top of the 8th. I mean, it is the Pirates, but he was mowing them down; I hadn’t seen the first 7 innings, but if they were anything like this one, and based on the amount of hits the Pirates had gotten, I would say they were, he was overpowering. Onto the 9th.

Listening to the Sox team of Benetti and Stone is not too bad on the ears; anybody but Hawk pretty much. But these guys know their stuff. Sure they lay it on a little thick for the Sox fans, but that’s understandable. This was a big moment. Thankfully the Sox took their advice and didn’t make a big inning in the bottom of the 8th; Lucas got right back out there. In the 9th, it was more of the same… even that last batter looked horrible on the first two pitches. That’s why I couldn’t believe they were calling for fastball on that final pitch. I thought that was stupid, and when he cracked that ball, I thought the no hitter was ruined at the last possible moment. But… Engel was positioned perfectly and made a great play on that ball; no hitter complete. I love seeing a no hitter.

Sure, it wasn’t Jake or Big Z, but like I said, any no hitter is cool to see, even if was across town. It was fun to see. I didn’t stay tuned in for all the non-socially distanced celebrations, or injuries caused by them, or any of the post game, but I did make sure my son saw the highlights of this game in the morning during Quick Pitch. Congrats to Giolito, the Sox, and their fans; it was a nice moment.
