third and final n- hitter.

And more than 70 years, on a blistering hot Thursday July 4th afternoon, we watched former Yankee relief great no hit the Boston Red Sox.

Fortunately we still have the ticket for each of the games.

C'mon, am I the only one to spot that Bruce(we) claims to have witnessed a no-hit game over 100 years ago? You guys are normally a lot sharper than this whenever Bruce is involved.

My bet is people noticed it, but realizing it was just yet another cry for attention by Bruce, chose to ignore it. That's what I did.

Al Leiter in 1996. The game was one sided from the beginning, the Marlins were killing the Rockies. I don't anyone(at least the fans in the stadium) was even paying attention to the fact he had the no hitter until about the 8th inning!

I was at Dwight Gooden's no-hitter in 1996. What I remember is thinking that he wasn't particularly dominant that day as he had more BBs than Ks and was helped by some great D (particularly a sweet catch by Gerald williams in CF). I also thought that if he wasn't such a dumbass junkie he may well have already pitched a couple of no-hitters at that point in his career. I was rooting for him though and he pitched like an ace for a month or two but by the end of the season he sucked so bad he wasn't even on the post-season roster.

I didn't save the ticket stub which is too bad because I could have picked my teeth with it.
