Last night AL pitcher Dylan Cease pitched an amazing game on the Red Legs, and then went 3 for 3 from the plate in his MLB hitting debut. White Sox need more pitcher - hitters.

John Means' perfect game is merely a no hitter solely because of a batter reaching on a dropped third strike.

It happened in the third inning. Would have been interesting if it had been late in the game

Wade Miley no hitter.  Indians no hit twice in a few weeks.

Might have to add no hitters as a fantasy category at this point, with how common they are now

MLB is batting .230 and there's a no-hitter every week now.  Something needs to be done.
