Starkville | Inside the Astros No-Hitter with Jason Benetti

An Astros pitcher accomplished something this week that hadn’t been done since 1892. Jayson Stark and Doug Glanville break down the historic feat, explain where Bumpus Jones fits into the story, and discuss what made it so remarkable with Sunday Night Baseball voice Jason Benetti. The guys also talk about Benetti’s chaotic travel schedule, how the ABS challenge system is changing the way he calls games, and the baseball cliché he can’t stand.Rundown:1:26 Joey Votto’s Visit to Starkville4:40 The Miz Brings the Heat8:13 Jason Benetti Joins the Show9:19 Benetti’s Chaotic Travel Schedule15:25 NBC’s Sunday Night Baseball Coverage31:39 The ABS Challenge System36:19 The Up-and-Down Detroit Tigers38:31 Tigers Manager A.J.
