News:

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

It's part of the scorebaord terminology: "Runs, Hits, Errors."

A no-hitter means that no runner got on base that game.  A pop fly to left that is caught for an out means that the batter did not get a "Hit".

So basically if you don't make it to first without getting out, then it is not a hit?

Nice use of a triple negative!

And, yes. 

Keep in mind that if the pitcher walks or hits the batter with a pitch, the batter can get to first without making a hit.



Fucking baseball rules, how do they work?

Allright you snarky yankee.....  :lulz:

Bite me, I never was a big baseball fan.  I like football and hockey.

Besides I'm a girl, I didn't have to learn the rules to survive puberty!  :wink:

You misunderstand.  I was a book nerd.  I only learned this shit after seeing Bull Durham.

How masochistic!

Well to be fair, it WAS from 1984-1987. I was 4 and had the hots for Ron Darling.

Baseball was not a huge thing in NC when I was growing up....  Football and basketball were the only sports that were big in my area.

AND, I was just joking...  :cry:

I believe that Halladay did walk at least one batter, thus explaining why there was a baserunner.  But he did not give up any hits.  Now, if he hadn't walked anybody, then it would've been a perfect game.

Baseball wasn't big in Florida either until at the earliest 1993, even now it's still debatable. I guarantee half the people down there think a slider is something that happens in NASCAR.

Or football. Remember there's 3 of those teams down there. Sometimes they're even good!
