Default OT: Justin Verlander 3rd No-Hitter
Justin Verlander threw his third career no-hitter today. All-time list is:

Nolan Ryan 7
Sandy Koufax 4
Larry Corcoran 3
Cy Young 3
Bob Feller 3
Justin Verlander 3

He's a sure HOFer, no doubt.

I think he was before this, but it is weird how he started to falter around 30 only to re-become a dominant power pitcher. Let's put it this way, if Kershaw has a second act like Verlander's he will go down as the greatest of all time.

Pitching with a team as strong as the Astros may just have given him a second life.

Never saw a guy come out for the 9th inning of a no no and act so freakin relaxed. Seemed to be zero stress. Strong mental game in addition to physical Gifts.

I think it was shoulder trouble that he finally found a treatment for, if I remember correctly. A gifted physical therapist discovered that his shoulder problem was just a symptom of an overall lack of flexibility and he rehabilitated himself.

Was he the one who lost a perfect game on the last out because of a terrible blown call at first? Or am I thinking of someone else?

Jesse, wrong Tiger. Not going to remember his name without looking it up but it was basically a guy who never panned out and that was his one moment of greatness stolen from him.

Not who you are referring to. Brian Holman lost a perfect game with 2 outs in the 9th. Ken Phelps hit his last career homer to blow it. Brian is a great guy with an amazing collection.

I got this for a song when he looked washed up. Very happy to have this in the collection.
