The Pirates are the only NL Central team not to have been blanked yet in 2013, Technically they scored 0 runs in the home opener through 9 Innings, but that was erased when Neil Walker hit a Walk off HR at PNC in extra innings,

In this post, which we are also going to feature in a Subpage at the site called ‘Shutout Survivor’, we will document who wins this race for all 30 MLB Teams, meaning we will state the date a teams gets Shutout for the 1st time of the year.


After the games on Apr.08, there are 12 teams taken out of this competition.  The AL still has 10 teams remaining in this and the NL has 8.  The NL Central only has Pittsburgh alive.


The AL Central only has seen Kansas City eliminated, while the AL West hasn’t lost a team since the A’s were blanked on Mar.31st.


Should be a great contest to see who can be the last team to score zero runs in a game,


BTW, Pittsburgh has gone though 9 innings in a game without scoring, but won the PNC opener Mar.31st vs the Cubs, essentially knocking them out with a walk off 1 – 0 victory via a HR.


Neil Walker WALK OFF HR – Opening Day PNC Park




The Jays have managed to even their record in 2014 to 4 - 4. They have scored between 2 - 5 runs themselves - and have knocked division rivals the Yankees and Tampa from this competition by bageling them in separate games. The offense isn't quite there, yet it has been okay - while the pitching is coming along since a 9 - 2 defeat in their opener at Tropicana Field against the Rays. Toronto starts the day just 0.5 Games Behind the Tampa Bay Rays for the division lead.

The fans at Kauffman have the longest playoff drought of any MLB franchise. They should have a better offense so far in 2014 - than scoring just 20 runs. Luckily for them they were not Shutout until last nights contest versus the Rays. Worse yet, is that the club left the bases loaded 3 times without scoring. Mike Moustakas did break his 0 - 21 slump too for the campaign. Things must improve for KC to take a run at in the AL Central this year.
