The 2010 baseball season now has its first no-hitter, delivered by Rockies’ starter Ubaldo Jimenez. The right-hander elicited a ground ball from the Braves’ Brian McCann to seal it.
In Progress: Ubaldo Jimenez Has No-Hitter Through 8th Vs. Braves. Jinx!
Jimenez did give up six walks to Braves hitters. This might tarnish the achievement for some, but keep in mind that this required Jimenez to throw 128 pitches without giving up a hit.
We’ll have more on Jimenez’s no-no shortly. In the meantime our Rockies blog, Purple Row, is already celebrating. Head over there to see what fans are saying.
