You gotta think Darvish will get one eventually. These last two have heartbreaking. Would've been interesting had the no hitter held up...am I the only one watching MLB Tonight? Mitch and Harold are great tv. MLB network is easily the best sports network imo.

Papi broke up Darvish's 1 hitter in the 9th.
Such a joke that was ruled an error.

Tough luck for Belt
How do you break up a 1-hitter?

That's the joke... It should not have been a no hitter into the 9th.

Just so I'm not crazy are you arguing that the ball Rios didn't catch should have been ruled a hit?

Absolutely. That play is never, ever, called an error.

So because that play is usually not called an error do you think it wasn't an error? Whether it usually gets called or not is irrelevant.

"In baseball statistics, an error is the act, in the judgment of the official scorer, of a fielder misplaying a ball in a manner that allows a batter or baserunner to advance one or more bases, when such an advance would have been prevented given ordinary effort by the fielder."
If you don't think that was an error, you are ******ed

It would have, but under rule that is clearly an error.
Its the same thing as no pass interference being called at the end of football games

If a ground ball goes through a fielder's legs or a fly ball falls untouched and, in the scorer's judgment, the fielder could have handled the ball with ordinary effort, the official scorer shall charge such fielder with an error.

Should that play be an error? Yes
Is that play ever called an error, besides tonight? No
I only have a problem with it because it is never, ever, called that way.
When you see a ball fall between OF'ers and IF'ers like that, it is never called an error, period.
For the dude saying you're a moron for not thinking that's an error
. Watch some more baseball and see how that's usually called.
Too make things even worse, they've gave the error to Rios and not the second baseman

so if a player is Interfered on the final play of a football game and the ref throws the flag, would you be saying the same thing? Just because the scorers never rule it that way doesn't mean that it should remain like that.

That play is called a hit in the first inning. It should be a hit in the 3rd, 9th and in a no hitter.
If they want to consistently call it an error, fine, but you don't start making that change during a no hitter.

Are you guys serious, the official scorer just make **** up as they go along.
If a no hitter is going it will be called an error.
The official scorers have never been consistent and never will be.
