Felix Hernandez threw a one hit shut out against the Red Sox tonight in Boston. Prior to the game all of the excitement was building up for Dice K's home debut. And while Dice K pitched a pretty good game allowing 3 runs in 7 innings, he was over shadowed by Hernandez's outstanding performance. Hernandez carried a no hitter all the way into the 8th inning.

Hernandez threw 8 shut out innings on opening day so he's now pitched a total of 17 scoreless innings this season with only 4 hits allowed. A Pretty Good Start to the season, no?

Seattle Side Note: Seattle is 3-2 (17 scoreless innings pitched by Hernandez has helped their cause) but their hitting has been awful in this early season. Suzuki at a .222 batting average is the only hitter in the 1 through 5 slots over .200
