No Hitter in 11 Innings

Have not seen this one before. Not sure if this has happened in real life.


Bevens Brilliant -- Fires No-Hitter
Friday, August 1st, 1947

Bill Bevens was unhittable today as he beat the Dodgers 1-0. The Chicago pitcher breezed through the Brooklyn lineup and got himself a no-hitter. Bevens had them talking to themselves as he struck out 5 and issued 2 walks in an outstanding performance at Wrigley Field.

His catcher said to reporters after the game, "He started off slow. He didn't have command of anything in the first three innings, but lucked his way through them. The Dodgers really helped him out by not being patient... they hit a lot of first pitches. Then it all came together in the fourth. From there on, the Dodgers never had a chance. He dominated them."

To date this season, Bevens has registered 19 starts, 8-9 won-lost mark, 4.66 ERA, 141 IP, 53 strikeouts and 62 walks. Opposing teams have hit .242 against him.
