Justin Verlander threw a no-hitter at the Brewers, 12K's

[Bozita]

The guy has three good pitches and he had masterful control of all three tonight.

The final batter even got a 102mph fastball.

First Tiger no-hitter at home since Virgil Trucks in 1952.

1. Darn. You beat me to it.

Congrats to Justin Verlander. A 102 mph fastball for the last batter? Boy he must have been pumped.

[El Supremo]

2. Wow!

Is it too early to predict a Tigers/Red Sox ALCS?

[leftwing9]

12. Yes

Gotta throw a word in for my Indians. 5-2 against the Tigers this year and a top 3 in the rotation that could dominate a playoff series. In fact, the Indians have played like crap since sweeping the Tigers in Detroit, and we're still tied for first.

The Angels are an excellent team and I could see them beating anyone.

Don't forget the Twins late-season push last year, and the A's late-season push every year.

3. Verlander threw a very good game and Ned Yost needs to be shown the door.

The sign of a good manager is improvement as the season progresses. With Yost it is a broken record of fade, fade, fade. Year after year.

At some point it is time to look elsewere.

5. As a Brewer fan

I couldn't agree MORE. This was a team that was 15 GAMES ahead in a weak division and now they are just fading. Time for someone else to step in.

9. I'm not a Yost basher

but I question leading off with the black hole of Counsell and Graffanino. Then why not PH someone like Braun or Graffy in the ninth? I guess he didn't want to put the rookies in that situation.

4. Not Sure, But My Hubby Said This Was A First Time No-Hitter For The Brewers?

I don't really see how that could be true, but you never know?

[mduffy31]

6. I believe so

They have never been the victim of a no hitter.

[Jimbo S]

8. Third time Brewers have been no-hit

Previously in 1974 and 1994.

[Dinger]

13. Damn You're Good Jimbo!

Thanks : )

7. He played for Old DominionU. Neither McLain or Lolich had no-hitters? nt

[LisaM]

11. Mookie - no, neither McLain nor Lolich did it. Last was was Jack Morris

in 1984, and before that, not since the 50's.

Virgil Trucks threw two no hitters in the 50's, but, according to my dad, the Tigers didn't have a winning season that year (my dad knows his stats, I'm sure he's right).

[LisaM]

10. Whoo hoo!

The extended M family was on the phone last night, from Seattle to Milwaukee to Michigan, celebrating this feat.

The Tigers have apparently only had six no-hitters ever.
