The trippy no-hitter of Doc Ellis

[Cowperson]

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.

I once played a college game hopped up on dilauded ( for a torn labrum) and Thera-flu ( for the flu obviously) and had a 3 Homerun day.... This has got to be a more Challenging feat. I mean anyone can throw up a ball while messed up , but try hitting one while your high... its a Trip!
