Who links video game speedrunners and baseball players? Mark Buehrle. Mark Buehrle’s starts could be best described as a speedrun through the very game of baseball itself. He routinely performed a baseball speedrun. Some Buehrle complete game performances were among the shortest baseball game ever. Well, at least MLB shortest games of the modern era. Sub 2 baby!
In this episode of Baseball Bits, a Foolish Baseball production, I will look at the career of Mark Buehrle through some Buehrle White Sox and Buehrle Blue Jays starts. In particularly, I’ll be breaking down the times of the Mark Buehrle perfect game, as well as Mark Buehrle’s 99 minute baseball game, a historic achievement done in a White Sox Mariners 2005 game. Perhaps the most entertaining, however, would have to be the Buehrle vs Sale matchup from 2015.
We’ll also look at complaints about slow-paced pitchers. /”Pedro Baez slow/” /”David Price slow/” We’ve all heard complaints. MLB pace of play is a huge topic of discussion right now, and I’m starting to think an MLB pitch clock might be the solution. Hopefully you’ll enjoy this one!
