Cole Hamels pitches a no- hitter

[39special]

It was good to see Hamels getting some run support.If he would have gotten some run support over the last 2+ years he would have a much better record.

Does this mean that HE is the greatest active pitcher THIS week?

I just know we are all over Kershaw by now, right?

Kershaw, Greinke, Hamels sounds really good to this Dodger fan. I've thought Hamels has been a great pitcher on a mediocre team for some time and today he proved it. For those who watched the Phils in the early 70's (see Steve Carlton ) know what it feels like to have an Ace on the staff and not much to back him up. Which ever team he ends up with is going to have a great addition to the club . Congrats to Cole ! Fingers crossed he lands in LA.

funny though he did get pounded last 2 starts previously..would it really be a shocker if he doesn't deliver ace stats rest of the way?

If this is Cole's last start as a Phillies pitcher, he certainly left the City of Brotherly Love in style.

I am lifelong fan of the Baseball Club from Philadelphia and will truly miss him.

Since this thread is void of cardboard thus far, let me add this image of the best hurler to play for my favorite team since Steve Carlton.

Eric - You can make a good case for Hamels as the best since Carlton, but you should not so quickly forget Roy Halliday - he was considered by many as the best in Baseball at his peak in Philly. Honorable mention in third place (and my personal favorite) goes to Cliff Lee. Those three were supposed to dominate Baseball for several years, but Hamels was the only one who could stay healthy...it would have been fun to watch.

hmmmm....SF can win a WS with MadBum.......followed by Peavy, Hudson and Voglesong. It's all about chemistry and LA ain't had any of that in a long time (dugout bubble machine, notwithstanding).

So it took SF 54 years to get there chemistry together ?
