I Blame Hunter and Palmer

Is it any wonder Daniel Cabrera lost his bid for a no-hitter in the 9th inning tonight? On the Comcast broadcast, Jim Hunter and Jim Palmer could not shut up about the fact that Cabrera was pitching a no-hitter, flying in the face of baseball superstition. If I heard one more thing about Palmer's no-hitter in 1969, I was going to scream (because it just had to be about Palmer...). It really leant itself to the concept "turn down the TV sound."

I'm just glad that Cabrera got himself together and pitched a good game to end the year.
