Wow! When the Houston Astros starter, Oswalt went down in the 2nd inning with an injury, no one visualized that 5 pitchers (6 total counting Oswald), later, the Yankees would be no-hit by the Astros. It hadn't happened in Yankee stadium since 1958. The Yankees lost 8-0, and Joe Torre said that he had no explanation. (Hint to Torre: the Astros have the best bullpen in the league) Go Astros!!

Well said, Brinn!

Heh, it took 6 pitchers, but a no-hitter is a no-hitter! Congratulations, 'Stros!

That's what I love about baseball! Just when you think you've seen it all!
Granted, the starter got hurt, and everyone else isn't used to more than a couple innings work, but how do you keep taking guys out in that situation? Amazing!

Typical Jimy Williams Dromond! We had him here for a few years. Remember how I said I hated when a manager pulled a pitcher who was pitching well? Jimy drove me absolutely batshit!
