Default The trippy no-hitter of Doc Ellis

Remembering the 1970 no-hitter thrown by Doc Ellis, who said he had dropped acid before the game.

He tells viewers about imagining Jimi Hendrix in the batter's box, Richard Nixon calling balls and strikes and coping with a ball that constantly shifted in size. But despite these drug-induced hallucinations (and eight walks), Ellis stifled the Padres, striking out six.

Far out man.
