soooo close!

After countless baseball games played over the years I finally thought I'd have my first no hitter. Lost it with 2 outs in the top of the 8th. Would have been sweet too, against the hated Cardinals and Wainwright. I won it in the bottom of the 9th on a Coghlan double and a single from Starlin Castro

So for those who have come close to a no-no, when did you lose it?

Re: soooo close!

The last no-hitter I had going, I lost in the 3rd inning.
But srsly, I've lost at least 4 no-no's in the 7th inning.
I can't say that I recall losing one in the 9th inning though.

I almost did it once with Jeremy Hellickson. I had two outs in the top of the 8th and Billy Butler kept fouling everything off till he got the dreaded single. Now every time I face the Royals, Billy Butler is dropping to the ground to duck every pitch.

Re: soooo close!

I carried one for 8 1/3 with Michael Wacha this year. So heartbreaking to lose.

Re: soooo close!

Back on MVP Baseball 2005 I had a perfect game with rodrigo lopez through 9 2/3 and lost it. I've had quite a few go to the 7th or 8th on MLB The Show and lost, but I don't remember having any go the 9th. On MLB 14 I had one with Ubaldo through 8 1/3 before I lost it (on a blooper).
I do have one no hitter with Roy Halladay playing against my brother (who's about evenly matched with me, so it was exciting)

Re: soooo close!

Closest I got was going into the seventh with no hitters a few times with Rich Harden.

Re: soooo close!

I finally threw a no no in my Mariners franchise with Ferlix Hernandez.
