When I was a kid, and later than that, a complete game by a pitcher was no big deal. Happened all the time. Now it's rare because pitchers get taken out after 100 throws. Baseball's political correctness. Healthy progress. It sucks.
Today the Mariners' Young has a two hit shutout after 7. But over 100 pitches. Bye, bye. Orioles come back and score 3 in the 8th and almost win the game.
The older I get, the more often what is called progress strikes me as one big Snow Job.
