That was a BIG shame...but both he and the ump were real men about it.

On the other hand, I'll bet Scherzer will have at least two more no-hitters in his career. Now, of course there is no way to predict such a thing, but when he's on, not many can touch him.

In the Detroit area, Galarraga is noted for having pitched the longest perfect game, retiring beyond a shadow of a doubt 28 men in a row.

Best to all,

In the Pittsburgh area that honor belongs to Harvey Haddix.
