Bob- I'm not exactly sure it would ROCK as you say it Byron.. it may be cool, by typical text book descriptions. Your opinion of this is shallow and poorly constructed, but allow me to re-craft your initial thought into something tangable.

Edit: Looked it up and of course I was wrong. The "never the same again" part is a bit misleading since this guy had an all-star season 6 years after his monster season so it's not someone with a short career.

in that situation, if there's a rundown and the runner runs out of the basepath to the point where the umpire calls him out (there's no tag applied), I don't think it would be scored a force out ... but am not sure on this point.
I guess if you have bad players in the field and a bad scorer anything is possible, the scorer could write down strikeout even with the ball in play. But I thought we were talking about real scenarios!

It's not so farfetched to imagine a guy running towards home, the throw is up the third base line, the catcher thinks he can tag the runner out rather than run back toward home as they're now running towards each other, then the runner veers far away to avoid the tag.It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

Immaculate innings are about twice as common in the NL for obvious reasons. However, three consecutive pitchers from the same team has happened twice, both in the AL:
10. Danny Jackson (1) Royals 10-24-1985 Terry Pendleton, Tom Nieto, Brian Harper 7th
11. Jeff Montgomery (1) Royals 04-29-1990 Pete Incaviglia, Geno Petralli, Thad Bosley 8th
12. Stan Belinda (1) Royals 08-06-1994 Eric Anthony, Chris Howard, Luis Sojo 9th
15. Jimmy Key (1) Orioles 04-14-1998 Robin Ventura, Magglio Ordonez, Ray Durham 2nd
16. Mike Mussina (1) Orioles 05-09-1998 Fred McGriff, Paul Sorrento, Rich Butler 9th
17. B.J. Ryan (1) Orioles 09-05-1999 Manny Ramirez, Jim Thome, Richie Sexson 6th
Koufax is the only one to do it three times. Nolan Ryan is the onlt ?RHP to do it twice and also the only pitcher to do it in both leagues.
