2012 Major League Baseball Discussion Thread

Bob Feller famously threw a no-hitter on the first day of the 1940 season.

I could have sworn I remembered Chan Ho Park throwing a no-hitter on opening day sometime between 1998-2003. A quick glance at Baseball Reference indicates that this is not the case, nor has he even thrown a no-hitter. I honestly might have just conflated real life with a video game.

I propose we create a separate thread for the Giants and Phillies fans to bitch about their team's inability to go 162-0 and win the World Series every year.

Also, it would have been great if Ozzie has praised someone nobody has heard of, like Islam Karimov.

Madison Bumgarner vs. Jamie Moyer lmao. When the former was 8, the latter was going 17-5 with a 3.86 ERA, the #3 Mariners pitcher behind Randy Johnson (20-7, don't remember the ERA), and Jeff Fassero (16-9, 3.61 ERA)
