Clay Buchholz Throws No No

In just his second career start Clay Buchholz has done something Curt Schilling still hasn't done in his career. He threw a no hitter. The unfortunate team was the Baltimore Orioles. The Boston Red Sox won 10 to 0 no thanks to a stellar performance from their top pitching prospect who had just been called up from AAA Pawtucket days earlier when teams were able to expand their rosters. Using an assortment of fastballs, change ups, and curve balls Buchholz struck out 9 and walked 3. Buchholz became the third pitcher since 1900 to throw a no-hitter in his first or second major league start. Boston Red Sox manager Terry Francona summed up Clay Buchholz's future with the Red Sox the best when he said, "There's no going back to Triple-A." Welcome to the big leagues kid!
