| looked like it was a great game and a pretty sweet catch at the wall to save the no hitter.

| Came into tonight at 2-8 with a 5.30 ERA... and one error away from a perfect game.
Worst pitcher ever to throw a no-hitter? At least in the discussion?

| So Sanchez is or isn't "in the mix"?
Poor Bud, if only he could see I was just asking a question.

| The Cardinals have another recent guy "in the mix" as well.
Jose Jimenez tossed one against Arizona on 6/25/99. He went 5-14 that year with a 5.85 ERA, and in his pro career, which apparently ended in 2004 with Cleveland, he was just 24-44 with a 4.92 ERA.

| I'm also gonna go ahead and nominate A.J. Burnett's no hitter on 5/12/01 as the worst of all time. Nine walks?!

| The craziest no no's would have to be Johnny Vander Meer's back-to-back no no's. He also had a sub .500 record in his major league career. | |

a guy with a 3-8 record and a 5.30 ERA suggests he can't do either of those things. | |
