The reason they're doing this is to protect the arms of their young pitchers, and I totally understand that.

But, Tony, it's a paradox.

The more we try to protect our pitchers especially, the more they get hurt.

So something needs to be fixed here.

I would have left that kid in the game and said, you have a chance to make history.

You're going to go get six more outs and throw a perfect game, and we didn't.

And, Tony, the final score of the game in which they took him out of

was 9-8.

He had a perfect game through seven innings, and the final score was 9-8.

So in that game, the Oakland A's became the first team in at least the last 75 years—we couldn't go back any further on this—

to be no hit or perfected through seven innings and score eight runs in the game.

I mean, this is how bizarre that game was, how bizarre this season has been, and just how beautifully bizarre baseball is.

Yeah.

Tony, I watched that game.

I was at ESPN that day doing baseball tonight.

I was watching that game by myself.

Not easy to do anymore at ESPN.

I stood up and cheered.

myself with no one else in the room when they let that kid go out for the ninth inning of that game.

Of course, he gave up a hit.
