There are some pitching performances that just stick with you. Whether it's something like Corey Kluber's 18-strikeout masterpiece or one of Nolan Ryan's seven no-hitters, if you happen to catch one of those gems in person, you'll remember it forever.

On this week's episode of the Cut4Cast, Dakota Gardner, Gemma Kaneko and Chris Landers recalled the best pitching performances they managed to see at the ballpark, and one of them might surprise you: A 2010 Cubs-D-backs matchup that featured Tom Gorzelanny taking the hill for Chicago.

The team also discussed their favorite ballpark pranks, whether we give pitchers too much credit for no-hitters and many other important topics. If you want to skip around, here's are the spots where you can delve in:

Gemma: "I can't reveal my secrets. I am a witch, though, in case anyone was wondering."

Dakota: "That for me -- easily the most impressive pitching performance I saw, because it just boggled the mind, which is key to anything impressive."

Chris: "We ruined the digestion and merriment of the ensuing high school students at our high school. I'm not proud."

Dakota: "That's another Cut4 top tip for you: Don't try to attack cardboard cutouts."
