Nimblebottom Tosses No-Hitter Against Astros
|
It was a terrific day for Pimbly Nimblebottom of the Texas Rangers at Minute Maid Park today. The right-hander stood out with a fantastic 6-0 no-hitter against the Houston Astros.
"I knew I had a no-no going in about the sixth inning when I noticed no one was talking to me anymore," he said, referring to the time-honored superstition of avoiding the pitcher so as not to jinx the no-hitter. "Don't let people fool you. Everybody on the field and in the ballpark knows what's happening. They just pretend they don't."
For the game, Nimblebottom totaled 4 walks and 9 strikeouts in a very strong outing.
"His mechanics were perfect, and I don't think he threw one bad pitch in the whole game," Texas manager Juan Smith said. "He was that good."
This season Nimblebottom has registered 9 wins and 5 losses in 21 starts with a 3.73 ERA.
