Complete completeness
2006-09-16 15:27
by Bob Timmermann

As I mentioned earlier, the only team in the majors without a complete game had been the Chicago Cubs.

But Rich Hill pitched a 2-hit shutout for the Cubs first complete game of 2006. Hill had 118 pitches on the day.

It wasn't as close a call as last year when Tampa Bay didn't get a complete game until Game 161.

Hill also posted the second highest Game Score of the year, with 92, tying Dontrelle Willis's performance from last Sunday for tops in the NL. John Lackey posted a 95 for the Angels back in July against Oakland.
