The stat of the day... comes from 43 years ago.
During the rain delay Sunday afternoon, WGN showed the last inning of Cincinnati hurler Jim Maloney's 10-inning no-hitter against the Cubs in 1965. The stat line is amazing:
10 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 10 BB, 12 K, 1 HBP
Ten walks, 12 strikeouts and one hit batter.
For a total of: 187 pitches!!
Some starters now don't even rack up 187 pitches over the span of two starts!
(Note: I loved that the Reds' uniforms had the player's name below the number. Made them look very much like a company softball team)
