The Angels managed to do something last night that's only happened 5 times since 1900. They lost a game in which they didn't give up a hit. They fell to the Dodgers 1-0.
But here's the even weirder thing, they didn't throw a no hitter either. Say what?
Yep, because the game took place at Chavez
This is the third time in the expansion era (1961-on) that there has been an eight-inning no-hitter: Boston's Matt Young threw one against Cleveland in 1990, and the Yankees' Andy Hawkins threw one against the White Sox in 1992. They were officially considered no-hitters at the time, but several years ago, the rule was changed. Now, according to major league rules, an official no-hitter is "when a pitcher (or pitchers) allows no hits during the entire course of a game, which consists of at least nine innings.'' So, the no-hitters by Young and Hawkins are no longer considered no-hitters, nor is the no-hitter thrown last night by the combo of Jered Weaver and Jose Arredondo.
Totally weird, yet totally awesome at the same time.
