History was flirted with yet again today as the San Diego Padres completely shut down the Colorado Rockies.
The Rockies’ offense was completely shut down for nearly 8 full innings. Jordan Lyles was on absolute fire today, and pitched a game of his life against a team that cut him not long ago. Lyles went 7 entire innings throwing perfect, no-hit baseball. It wasn’t until the second out of the 8th inning that he would finally allow a hit, a fair line-drive single from Trevor Story.
Before that Lyles was totally dealing, striking out 10 Rockies with only 70~ pitches.
