From a car washer in the Dominican Republic, to a pitcher with a 0 ERA in spring training, to a NO HITTER!!! Let’s Go Astros!!!
Not to mention he became a father just last week. And he was on the roster bubble for most of ST.
GOD DID
it’s what you love to hear
But got swept by my Yankees 😂
Imanaga's debut has more views than all three of this guy's videos combined. People's interest is honest.😂
Baseball is a weird game. From getting swept by the Yankees to a guy I’ve never heard of throwing a no hitter for Houston, it just goes to show, assume nothing, because anything can happen.
That’s why I love baseball. Every day is a new day.😙
@@JamesBond77 I told my fellow Red Sox fans this and they all thought I was a clown who worked for Owner John Henry. Crazy how even the most passionate baseball fans can forget the expression anything can happen.
Why does it matter that you never heard of Ronel Blanco? He’s a solid major league pitcher. There are endless players that you don’t know or pay attention to.
Imagine being successful only 30 percent at the plate and being h.o.f. player that's baseball looks easy but the hardest to master
Sticky stuff really helps
Man I love this game. Dude makes it on the staff on the last day of spring training, only has 7 career starts, and throws a no hitter in his first appearance of 24’. This game is the best. It’s impossible to not be romantic about baseball.
Also, for all MLB The Show fans, let’s go taunt kevin with this. 😂
I'm confused who is Kevin?
Ageee with you on how this no hitter is another example of why baseball is beautiful.
@@RenaldyCalixte Kevin is a youtuber that plays mlb the show and he is a blue jays fan
This is why I love baseball. Any player, on any given day, can have a game for the record books. Well done.
Phillip humber XDD
@@ericlego321Dallas Braden perfect game on Mother's Day in front of his grandmother. I will never forget that.
Fun Fact: After this win, Joe Espada is the first manager in MLB history to have his first career managerial win from a no-hitter.
He started with losing 4 games. So who cares
@@TheLastBlackJaguar you, it seems like
^^^What he said^^^
Stros live in his blood pressure rent-free.
@@JRABBITTT lil bro still mad about the 2022 sweep lol. stros will never leave his head and i wouldnt have it any other way
@@TheLastBlackJaguarI care a lot
That late drop on his changeup is filthy
Never know who's gonna throw a no hitter! Congrats Blanco
Very true
The Dallas Braden perfect game is a great example of this, every guy has stuff to make it to this level and sometimes it’s their day.
@@jdaily2293Don't forget. He pitched that no hitter in front of his grandmother.
I don't know who's scouts the pitchers for Houston but he's pretty good finding gems.
Never heard of him before today and he throws a no no, at 30.. in his 8th career start.. crazy stuff, but you gotta love it!.
I don’t think this video can really do justice to how dominant he really was this game. The Jays never even came close to hitting him
They obviously didn't gamelan for the changeup at all. Only Springer figured out how to deal with it, aka "don't swing."
I did NOT have Ronel Blanco throwing a no hitter on April fools day in his 8th career start on my Astros bingo card for 2024
He made a fool out of the blue jays
@@thepoisonouspotato3631It'd be funny if Blanco told a friend in the Dominican who couldn't watch his start what he did and they laughed saying ha ha April fools. And he's like no really I threw a no hitter.
I watched this whole game live. A no hitter was in the back of my mind the whole time, but I figured his pitch count was gonna be too high. He really did a good job of reeling it back in and controlling the pitch count
Yeah, I figured the bullpen would choke the combined nono but he just took it himself- just over 100 is so ideal for todays standards.
What's most incredible about this performance to me is that barely any tough defense plays were needed. When someone you've never heard of gets a no hitter, 9 times out of 10 it requires some pretty incredible defense and batted ball luck. Not here, the most unlikely out was the IKF lineout at 1:02, it had an expected batting average of just .490. The odds of all 20 batted balls winding up outs was 5.5%, which might sound low, but is absolutely fantastic for a no hitter (For context in Tyler Gilberts debut no hitter there was a 0.011% chance of all batted balls resulting in outs). Really stellar job from Blanco.
Galarraga's near perfect game had several crazy defensive plays which made the missed call by Joyce even more painful.
3:54 looked pretty tough
4:44 was also a fantastic play by Abreu
@@andersswanson-lane the first was only difficult because it was deflected by the Blanco, the ball was coming to him. The second is a pretty tough play, but in the context of one of the hardest plays in a no-hitter, that's absolute cake.
Not sure ever saw a pitcher throw a no hitter with the batters off stride this much on that change up . All hard hit balls were played well. No doubter. wow the pop ups and just grounders
Que Felicidad siento por Ronel Blanco ese mismo día que él hizo este gran trabajo su bebé nació ❤🎉
What a PITCH perfect feeling man -- wishing this man the best!!
Can anyone explain how Turner not getting out in the 1st did not count as either a hit or an error? I’m genuinely so confused even though I’m so excited about this game! lol
Well because an out was recorded on his at bat, it’s considered a fielders choice and not a hit.
There was a runner on 1B, and he grounded into a fielder's choice. Personally, I think it should have been an error on Abreu as well, because the throw should have been handled. Either way, it's not a hit.
@@mph7282 Oh ok, I see! My husband read it wasn’t an error because it was something like above the level of a reasonable difficulty or something. But it didn’t seem like that to me 🤣 I was there and was so mad he dropped it haha But in the end Abreu redeemed himself a few times over, thankfully.
Is that 2-3 years in a row the stros have had no-hitters?
Three
3 years in a row. And 4 of MLB's last 7 No-No's belong to H-Town
Truly magical
BREAKING: A base hit is currently on a plane to Toronto. No deal has been confirmed yet.
That’s pretty good
4:01 “got the right base runner” lol 😂
Ronel Blanco wouldn't have made the Team if injuries didn't happen. Ronel was the Last Player selected in Spring Training.
Amazing Performance for Ronel Blanco, his hard work in Fitness, Pitching Delivery really showed Improvement.
Also the first victory for Joe Espada as the Astros' manager. Not a bad way to celebrate!
What A Incredible Historic Performance By Ronel Blanco Congratulations👍👏🎊🎉🥳💐🍾🥂🎆🎇
What's also wild is if Verlander didn't need that extra time to ramp up for the season Blanco wouldn't have been making this start if they went with normal 5 man rotation to start the season. Take your time gettin ready JV Mr. Blanco got u covered
Yeah, that’s what I was saying
It was beautiful listening to it.
🤘
Go Astros
Ronel Blanco Excelente 🇩🇴🌟👍🙏💪⚾👌🇩🇴
As a dodgers fan, congrats. Can’t help but root for someone like that.
I know who im going to pick up right away in my fantasy league.
Who’s watching after he cheated using sticky stuff recently
It's Rocin at he's Glove Mature bro at This Point u are just hating so much
Not taking anything away from Blanco, but how do the Jays expect to contend with that lineup? Clement, Kiermaier, IKF and Biggio are automatic outs. Almost half the lineup can't hit. lol
Great stuff, congrats!
Could Of Had Used Him Against The Yankees But Glad For Him For The No Hitter What A Awesome Night
What a stopper!
Eight career starts and a no hitter. Amazing!
I don’t get it didn’t Abreu drop the ball at first for the double play
Fielders choice not a hit
@@Lassiter737fielders choice makes no sense that’s a hit lol either way there someone is advancing to a base not a no hitter in my book
@@tylerricker230 take the rules up with MLB. Lol
@@Lassiter737 so riddle me this… did he hit the ball into play yes or no? Did he get a base out of it yes or no?
No. The play resulted in at least one out. Doesn’t matter where the out is.
Did this guy just pitch 9 inngs
…yes?
Instant Legend!
I was at this game and it was crazy
He better be in the damn All-Star game.
Love to see Blanco rocking the DJT haircut. Absolute boss.
Well played sir.
A 30 year old from the Dominican Republic making his 8th career start throws a no-no. How can anyone not be romantic about baseball? Lets go Stros!!
And now my Venecos friends will said he's under some sustance 😂😂😂😂..
Long live my 🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴
I never liked the Astors but I hope this pitcher thrives this season!!
❤❤Vivaa La Pelota Latinaa❤❤
congrats! so that's what it took for the Astros to get in the win column for the season?
2024: Maybe it’s a good thing Verlander and Urquidy are injured 🤔
2023: Maybe it’s a good thing Altuve got injured
Luis Garcia and mcullers are also injured
@@zxtenfx3762yup, I miss them, I have a McCullers 2022 gold jersey
@@zxtenfx3762 Come on man, every one knows LMC isn't real. You're talking about Easter Bunnies man.
@@ItsGoatSeasonwhen he’s healthy, he’s good
Incredible
Sorry maybe I am not familiar with all rules yet. Wasn't it a base hit in 1st inning? Is there a much difference between no-hitter and perfect game? I understand that perfect means no batter reach 1st base ANY WAY. but not-hitter not quite clear for me, based on the base hit that I have seen in 1st inning.
Much appreaciate for any replies here. Thanks.
In the first it was a 5 pitch walk. A walk is where the pitcher throws 4 balls in one AB. The difference between a perfect game and a no-hitter is in a no hitter your allowed errors or walks for batters to get on base, but in a perfect game they cannot get on base at all, thus making it a whole lot more rare. Hope this cleared it up for you.
@@Alex-ie8py thanks a lot
Vladdy bailed him out on that last pitch
He made a fool out of the blue jays
Nice
🚀
I’m confused. Does the error in the first inning not count as a hit then. Even tho the runner made it to first on a hit
It was a fielder’s choice out, which is not a hit. Errors don’t count as hits either.
Errors don’t count as hits. But that took away the perfect game
@@RoyaltonDrummer922 The walk to the first batter took away the perfect game
이 게임이 전설적인 투수의 첫 발걸음일 수도 있다
Nice job,Rorel!
he threw as many hits as times we've actually landed on the moon !
This might be the fastest to a no hitter in a season ever: 5 games… someone correct me if I’m wrong
Bob Feller threw one for Cleveland on Opening Day, forget which year maybe 1941.
It's the earliest by date
很棒 非常感動 👍👍
How long was this game? Like an hour and a half?
Sick!!
how is it a no hitter didnt a batter get to first base in the first inning off a hit? 0:18
Fielders choice. Doesn’t count as a hit
It's not a hit. It resulted in an out.
@@Boragath123 thank you. I didn't know that.
Awesome!
Tenía que Ser Domiiii 🇩🇴
❤❤❤❤❤ baseball
Ronel Blanco... now I know your name. 1st career no hitter
Take a shot every time he says "cambio"
Verlander has 3 or 4 no hitters with the stros
Javier has 2 (including ws no hitter)
Framber has 1
Now blanco gets his first
Verlander has 1 no hitter with the Astros
Verlander's no-hitter was in 2019 also against the Blue Jays.
Verlander has 2 no hitters at Detroit..2005-vs . Milwaukee,2012-at Toronto
@@AmericaCirclingTheDrain ok?
Some kind of script damn. Congrats. It's rare for a pitcher to pick corners with a change up
Thought this was an April fools joke at first
Imanaga's debut has more views than all three of this guy's videos combined. People's interest is honest.😂
This exposes what Jays fans know. We have a weak lineup again this year.
Or you just played a really good team.
@@martyklestadt6766 give credit to the pitcher for sure, but Jays hitting depth is not great.
@@andrewphilips2457 No? Then how did you score, what was it, fifteen runs in the two wins you had in the previous series?
Teams with bad hitting depth don't score that many runs in games.
@@martyklestadt6766 Then 2 runs in 2 games. Sure we have a few great hitters but just not enough depth in the lineup.
We'll see. I predict their not even .500 this year. Think of all the absolute stud hitters we let go in last 3 years and replace them with really average or below average hitters. Right now .196 team batting average. It will be a long season if that doesn't improve
@@andrewphilips2457 Well, as a Jays fan, you would know better than me.
The key words are "we'll see."
For your sake, hopefully the hitting depth won't be as bad as you've feared.
A no hitter already we’ve still got 158 games to go lol
This is the easiest most simple no-hitter of all time. The blue jays had no change in approach, lazy swings, no adjustment to the changeup. More embarrassing for Toronto
As a dodgers fan i fear houstons pitching. Seems like they get a no hitter every season
Fooled their entire lineup! 4-1-24 "No No Blanco!"
I’m so happy for the Astros we loss 4 in a row with a new manager then r first win is a no hitter
LETS GO ASTROS
CHRISTIANO RINALDO NO HITTER ❤❤❤❤
We love reynaldo!!
History
Ross atkins destroyed the blue jays by getting rid of Moreno and gurrial jr and Hernandez aswell as not landing Ohtani and striking out on Soto in the off season, what has happened to Manoah is an absolute joke
Jose Abreu did something good 😊
Platano power!!!!!
Only the astros would get swept just to throw a no hitter the next day
Pitcher has a gyatt
Wait, why was the non out at first at 0:23 not considered a base hit? Error?
I'm wondering the same
Fielders choice
@gradyjones7017 - right but he still made it due to the drop. Not getting the discrepancy
It's a fielders choice bro, it's basic baseball rules.
@@417fga do me a favor - define a hit for me
Cambio cambio
🇩🇴❤️🙌🏻💯
ANTICIPATING HIM VS THE SOTO, JUDGE, STANTON & THEM BOYS
Can someone explain how its a no hitter when 1st inning they got a hit and made it to base🤔
Because they didn’t get a hit
An out was recorded on the attempted double play, it’s therefore ruled a fielder’s choice which is not a hit.
Abreau dropped the ball. Counts as his error
@@andrewhernandez2650 Nope. Fielder's choice.
I believe that the No Hitter rules should be changed. Why is it still considered a no-hitter if a player HITS the ball. New Rule should be - Once a batter makes ANY contact with the ball in fair play, A pitcher loses his No-Hitter status.
It's called a no hitter because the batter did not get a base hit genius.
@@TheLastBlackJaguarpretty sure it’s a joke
@@TheLastBlackJaguarim pretty sure he took the short bus to school
I hope you were kidding. In case you're not, then what you're referring to should be called a "no-contacter." Which has NEVER happened in the history of MLB.
Turner batting at :19 not a hit??? Astros didn't complete the double play and he reached base??? 🧐🤔
They counted it as an error right?
Platano power
what is consider a no hitter ?
A game in which one of the teams doesn't get any hits.
he really made the Blue Jays look like fools !!
Did it really count now???
Yes, he gets checked after every inning, clearly found nothing here
A complete game no-hitter for the purists. The Astros get it done.
the astros have a new system
womp womp
Yup. It's called winning without cheating. Old system was winning with cheating while everyone else was cheating at the same time (2017-2018).
New system is winning without cheating (2019-present).
Under both systems--best sustained success.
Every team cheats and steals signs. Every game. It's called the game within the game. The Yankees were mad the small market Astros were constantly beating them and got the scandal started. Every team cheats. @@martyklestadt6766
How was this a no hitter. They missed a double play in the first inning and the runner was safe on first
Player on base from walk, Fielders Choice on the missed double play.
Im wondering too, but looks like its official.
Oh ok. I see.
Congratulations to Houston Astros on wining the first game of the season to be 1-4 record in the AL West.
And we did it in style🔥
How is this a no hitter? Doesn’t a dude make it to first on his hit at the very beginning?
