Anyone remember Dave Stieb had 2 games in a row where his no-hitter was broken-up in the 9th (Sept 30, '88)? I was at the 2nd one (well - I got kicked out of it). Stieb had 4 no hitters broken up in the 9th, and 3 of those were with 2 out. It was great to see him finally get a no-hitter when he had come close so many times (In 1990 - his was the 9th (out of 9) no hitters that season)
