What's even more impressive of VanderMeer is he worked 21 2/3 no-hit innings counting the games before and after his two no-hitters. Now, if that isn't impressive enough in it's own right, I had the occasion to work a show with Johnny right before his death. He told me that his streak would have run to nearly 27 inning showever a play originally ruled an error was changed to a hit, thereby stopping the streak at 21 2/3 innings.
