I'm up in Alaska for work, was out of phone coverage much of the day, and amazingly had no idea it had happened when I watched the game on my computer earlier tonight. Amazing! I didn't get to see a Giants no hitter for the first 30+ years of my life, but have no seen 5 in the past 5+ years, including Cain's perfect game in person.
Will be interesting to see how the rotation plays out. Both Heston and Vogey have been pretty strong, though I think Vogey gets bumped first. Peavy is rehabbing now too, but wouldn't prefer him over anyone in this rotation (or Cain).

Actually, the last Giants Rookie to throw a no-hitter was Jeff Tesreau vs. Phillies on September 6, 1912 - Matty's was on July 15, 1901.
