Bailey pitches no-hitter for Reds
Fri,28 Sep 2012 07:32 PM PDT
Reuters - (Reuters) - Cincinnati Reds pitcher Homer Bailey threw his hand up for a place in the club's playoff rotation by pitching a no-hitter in a 1-0 win over Pittsburgh on Friday night. Bailey became the 15th Red in history to throw a no-hitter and the first since Tom Browning threw a perfect game in 1988. He was just an error and a walk away from his own perfect game but was otherwise brilliant, striking out 10 to gain his 13th win of the year, his best tally in a season. Once a very rare occurrence, no-hitters have been in vogue of late. ... Full Story | Top |
