We asked you: Does Michael Lorenzen’s feat bring back memories of no-hitters past? Among your responses:
I was at the no-hitter pitched by Roy Halliday. The crowd started buzzing in the fifth inning and didn’t stop until the game ended. What a fantastic day.Surprisingly the Phillies toss more no hitters than you might remember. Since Jim Bunning’s perfect 1964 game against the Mets Philly pitchers have tossed 11 of them. And as a side Carlos Ruiz holds the NL record for catching the most no-hitters and is tied for the MLB record by catching four.
And of course the next best was Roy Halladay’s no-no against the Reds in Game 1 of the 2010 NL playoffs. The very last batter hit a dribbler down the first base line that I think everybody in the park was thinking oh-no, but Chooch jumped on it and threw the guy out at first.I remember Hamels’ no-hitter before he got traded and the combo no-hitter he was part of. Can never forget Halladay’s no-hitter and perfecto in the same year. It was the same incredible feeling. So happy for him.
By now your readers ... those unfortunates who missed any minute of what makes THE GAME OF BASEBALL so great and what makes the Phillies so special ... have read the awesome statistics of 8/9. But, you had to be there, in person, or watching on TV, or listening on radio, to have experienced the one element that sets 8/9 apart ... the Philly Fans! My God! Has any sports team ever had the likes of us? Notwithstanding the Seattle Seahawks 12th man ... that was just noise.
The emotional high we were given by the 30,000-plus who were there and a TEAM of 26, but the millions of others at home who experienced the THRILLS of 8/9, the game for the ages!We compiled today’s newsletter using reporting from Josh Tolentino, Scott Lauber, David Murphy, Jeff McLane, Olivia Reiner, Giana Han, Jeff Neiburg, Kerith Gabriel, Marcus Hayes, and Isabella DiAmore.
