Feller Twirls No-Hitter Against Boston
Sunday, July 13th, 1947
"Bob Feller was just plain nasty on the mound today," according to his batterymate and quite a few of the Boston Red Sox after the Cleveland hurler fired a 2-0 no-hitter.

The Red Sox were powerless against him. "It is what we call in baseball 'filthy'... his stuff was just too much for us today," the losing manager told reporters after the game."

In an overpowering performance Feller faced 30 batters in all and finish the game with 12 strikeouts and 4 walks.

"After the first couple of innings, I knew I had some good stuff going," Feller said. "In the bullpen, it really wasn't that good, to be honest. But when I got out on the mound and flipped the switch, I had some pretty good stuff. I had a good fastball with control and I was able to throw my breaking ball and changeup for strikes."

So far this year Feller has a 12-6 record with a 2.36 ERA.
