Dodgers no-hit twice in 9 days

[ooo-ribay]

Is that a record?

Boy, I hope so!

Could it be Rollins and Utley?

Could that bad Philly mojo finally be, "outta here," having traveled to the West Coast with our former middle infielders?

I hope so.

No. It is NOT the record:

Straight from the pages of Ripley's Believe-it-or-not, the 1917 Chicago White Sox, winners of 100 games that year and the World Series Champions, were no-hit on CONSECUTIVE days by the immortal Ernie Koob and then the equally famous Bob Groom, both of the St. Louis Browns.

Koob beat Eddie Cicotte 1-0 on May 5 and Groom beat Joe Benz 3-0 in the second game of a double-header on May 6.

TRUTH is stranger than fiction, huh?

The White Sox were probably wishing someone hit for the cycle one of those days - such news and the no-hitters would hardly have been noticed.
