Default O/T - Special Night in Detroit - a little baseball history

Thats cool that you were there Joe! Thanks to xmradio i actually listened to the last 2 innings while at work.

The closest ive ever come to seeing a no-hitter was Cole Hamels in the minors when he pitched 6 perfect innings but it was very early in his career and they had him on a strict pitch count.I was disappointed they didnt let him go further as the other team never even came close to a hit and he had 11 K's

One game of note i saw as a kid was a semi-pro game where there were scouts there to see the starting pitcher.The scouts left after 1 inning when he walked 2 batters and gave up 3 hits. From then on,he allowed nothing and finished the game 24 up 24 down. I always wondered if those scouts stayed just a little longer what wouldve ever happened for that guy because i could never find anything for him past that season
