I don't care if he's due to get hit hard by the hammer of regression, I'm going to bask in every outing like this I can get.

 

Why do you think this will necessarily happen?  It's not like Santana is just blowing away dudes (phrasing) with his fastball.  He has 4 legit pitches he throws.  Gets weak contact.  He's sustained this type of pitching dating back to last July.

Let's ******' get it here, boys.

3 and a handshake

Let's ******' get it here, boys.

Loving that handle.

Let's ******' get it here, boys.

Couldn't have said it better my own d*mn self!

Nice play there, Jorge!

Another guy not running out a dropped third strike. I guess when you're a star,..

No one sustains this type of pitching as a starter, especially given ESan's k/bb rates.

 

90%+ LOB (vs a career mark of 73%)

 

.143 BABIP (vs career of .282)

 

Clayton Kershaw, in his best full seasons, had marks of 81.6% and .250.

This game has seemed to move along very quickly or those Christina Applegate pics quickened my heartbeat a bit.

He gone!

BOOM

Beautiful start from an ACE!!

Oh Ervin, please don't get traded (unless it's for a king's ransom).

Thataway, Erv!

Another series win!

Santana got it done.

Let's go Reds.

I'll give up my  partial credit for the Dozier HR, BUT I'm hanging on to my credit for my "Santana shut them down HARD, tonight"...  

 

Great win Twins!!!!!!!!

Wow!  Any unbelievers left out there?  First time in an eternity that the O's have been shut out at home.

This Santana guy. He's pretty good, huh?

First team to take a series in Baltimore this year

Now all we'll need is someone to stick it as a signature line and it will become undeniable history.

Winnah.

 

Complete game shut out, to boot.

 

What's not to like about the game and the season?
