Deal, or No Deal?

No-Hitter Season

In this short MLB season so far, the rare feat of a no-hitter has become, well, not so rare. Jake and Matt discuss the changes in hitting and pitching that have resulted in a lack of offense around the league, as well as the spate of Mets injuries. Plus, a fun fact that'll bring you back to the early 1900's!  Music: Barricade by Scott Holmes (CC BY 2.0 [https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/])  Sound FX: Thunder created by Grant Evans, used with CC BY 3.0 license.
