Cole throws a 7 inning shut out, leaves the bases clear and gets a no-decision.

 

The boys owe him...they usually pay their debts.

Hosmer is getting shit for it, but that should have been an easy catch for the pitcher.  I know the catcher was supposed to stay at home because of the runner or else it would have been his, but Hosmer had the most ground to cover to get to it out of the 3.  The main reason he missed it was because he had to come in so fast that he overran it.  On a popup like that, it's easier to catch when you are already under it and not charging in.

People still care about pitcher "wins?"

It is still a certain measure of success. 

 

Besides, at the end of the season , someone's gonna have to decide which of these 5 guys gets the Cy Young...

Cy Young voters do, though probably not as much as they used to.
