R.A. Dickey let up only 2 hits in 8 1/3 shutout innings and drove in a run to help his cause as Toronto beat the defending champs in San Francisco, 4-0.

Julio Teheran threw a no hitter into the 8th inning and finished with 8 1 hit, shutout innings in the Braves 5-0 victory over the Pirates.

Carlos Gonzalez smashed 3 homers, driving in 6, as the Rockies dismantled the Reds 12-4.

And the Mariners did not win their epic 16 inning marathon against the Chicago White Sox. But don’t blame Kyle Seager! He went 3-5 in the loss, including a 2 out, 2 strike game tying grand slam in the bottom of the 14th. Do you know how many people have hit an extra inning game tying grand slam in the history of baseball? One. Kyle Seager. He did it yesterday.

Prince Fielder drove in 4 runs in three different rallies as the Tigers wiped away an early deficit, took the lead and eventually blew out the Rays, 10-1. Fielder went 3-4 with a homer.

David Phelps pitched 6 innings of 1 hit shutout ball, striking out 7 as the Yankees topped the Indians, 4-3.

Josh Collmenter pitched 4 innings of shutout relief, all after the 10th inning on the road. Each pitch he threw to the St. Louis Cardinals could have lost the game. He had base runners in every inning and yet wiggled out of trouble and the Diamondbacks won in 14, 7-6.

And thanks to his two homer, three hit and 5 RBI day, Yasiel Puig has owned baseball every game he has played as the Dodgers came from behind to beat the Padres, 9-7.

I jump right into the polarizing topics today on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

The startling walk off inside the park homer by Angel Pagan in San Francisco does not makeup the fact that critical calls were blown and can be easily fixed.

Plus I talk Dusty Baker. Even the mentioning his name brings about extreme points of view. I defend and then trash him.

And I even make a Cyrano de Bergerac reference. It makes sense.

Mike Minor pitched 7 1/3 shutout innings, letting up just 3 hits and striking out 10. He also went 2-4 at the plate, hitting a 2 out 2 run homer that helped Atlanta beat the Mets, 6-0.

And Angel Pagan helped wipe away a day full of frustrations and bad calls against the Giants with a 2 run, 1 out, walk off come from behind 10th inning inside the park home run. He went 2-6 as the Giants shocked the Rockies by a final of 6-5.
