Last year there was a rain delay in like the 4th or 5th inning that lasted over an hour and 15 minutes. Jon Lieber returned and finished the game, a complete game shutout, a one hitter. The game was at Cinergy Field against the Reds. The next day Kerry Wood pitched a one-hitter, making Lieber and Wood the first pitchers to throw back to back one-hitters since the 70s. God I miss those days.

Joe Carter called him the "Rain Man" the other day because he ALWAYS seems to pitch when it rains.
