This is just a no hitter.

In a no-hit game, a batter may reach base via a walk, an error, a hit by pitch, a passed ball or wild pitch on strike three, or catcher’s interference.

He does get credit for a 8 innings of no-hit ball, but he wouldn’t make a list of true “no-hitters” if he only pitches 8 innings I believe.

The Halos are apparently fans of allowing more runs than hits.

But this will do too.

If it holds up. I am of course jinxing it. (I usually jinx them by tuning in just in time for the first hit. Did that last night with CC.)

I just glanced at the box score and didn’t even notice the no-no since there was a run on the board.
