Francisco Liriano throws a no-no

Post by clenz »

Franky no hits the White Sux tonight! Good thing he did because the worst offense in the league only put up one run thanks to Kueb's solo jack in the second.

Maybe the Twins can turn the season around yet!

Oh, I also believe this was the first complete game of his career as well.

Amazingly, this wasn't even close to the most walks issued during a no-hitter. Reds pitcher Jim Maloney allowed ten freebies in a ten-inning no-hitter against the Cubbies 19 AUG 1965.

Yes it was. I missed that play live as I had gotten up to go to the bathroom. Saw it on the post game highlights. Good thing Danny has a gun for an arm

Fankie had the second highest ERA in history of all pitcher to throw a no-hitter
