Last Night:

John Maine of the Mets took a no hitter 7th inning before it fizzled out. The Mets still won the game against the Marlins 9 to 2. The Mets have gone their entire franchise history without a single no hitter.

Meanwhile the White Sox had their 16th no hitter in their franchise's history. To be fair to the Mets in this comparison, the White Sox are a much older franchise.

Mark Buehrle threw his first career no-hitter for the White Sox and was very close to throwing a perfect game. He faced the minimum of 27 batters. The only runner to get on board was Sammy Sosa who was walked in the 5th inning. Sosa then got picked off first. Good going Sammy!

Buehrle is now 1-0 with a 2.08 ERA for the year as his first 2 starts were no decisions. The White Sox have won all three of his starts this year.
