when was the last time Randy...

[Greenrider]

...did not strike anyone out in a game? Anyone know?

[TheYanks04]

Don't know...but he is fortunate he faced the A's today as his location was awful.

I wonder if his groin is still bugging him? His velocity looked fine from the few innings i was able to see him pitch though.

I think I heard them say the last time was in 2000 versus the Mets.

He was missing pretty badly at times. I am beginning to wonder how much of it is also some bad pitch selection from Posada. They were looking for first pitch fastballs inside early on and it seemed like it took awhile for the Yanks to realize that and switch to something else and mix up the pattern. Still, Johnson's main problems this season have been bad location and the gopher ball.

Hope it isn't groin-related. Already lost Harden this week.
I remember he did pull up funny in the first inning of his last start. Torre and the trainer came to the mound, but he pitched seven more innings, so I assumed all was well.

Didn't the Johnson throw in the mid to high 90s? I only recall seeing one pitch hit 94. Everything he was throwing seemed to lack the obscene movement he usually has, too. He probably isn't quite right yet. But at 41 you have to wonder if he is losing it.

Sux, because it isn't right not to see him blowing away hitters.

Definetly not Randy like numbers. I wonder if he's nursing something. I guess even the unit can't be the unit all the time

Randy Johnson didn't strike out a batter, but still picked up his 250th career victory by limiting the Athletics to four runs -- three earned -- in six innings of work.
It was the longest outing of Johnson's career without recording a strikeout. His previous long was three innings of work back in 1989 when he was with Montreal. Johnson is the 44th pitcher to reach 250 wins. He passed Vic Willis at 249 today and up next is Bob Gibson at 251.

To expound upon gws226. Here is more exact info on the last time Randy Johnson didn't strike anyone out (According to a Yahoo article):

Randy Johnson earned his fourth win of the season and 250th of his career on Sunday, going six innings against Oakland. That doesn't sound so strange, right? Well, the outing marked the first time that Johnson had failed to strike out a hitter in a game when he pitched more than three innings since April 10, 1989. That's a streak of 481 starts.
