no-hitters

In the long history of baseball, it's only happened twice that pitchers on opposing teams no-hit one another's clubs in back-to-back games, but the second one happened 53 years ago this week when Jim Maloney and Don Wilson authored brilliant no-nos against the Astros and Reds, respectively. Mike and Bill look back at two of the forgotten star hurlers of the 1960s, and on their very weird dual accomplishment.

Plus, happy birthday to Larry Andersen and Heine Meine!

This week we're joined by Kelly Robinson, a Chicago resident and long-time fan of the Chicago White Sox. He and his wife are ballpark chasers who go on an extended road trip each year to visit minor league and independent ballparks. Kelly has been present for THREE no-hitters, several triple plays, historic moments, and even a few baseball oddities.  We also commiserate on the difficulties of explaining the rules of baseball to newcomers, and why you should never leave a game early.
