Jim Ehrler

Jim Ehrler had the distinction of having pitched the first no-hitter in College World Series history. He did it in Omaha in 1950 while with the Texas Longhorns against Tufts University. He was fairly successful in his first couple of seasons of professional baseball, keeping his ERA low, and that earned him a non-roster invitation with the Boston Red Sox in the spring of 1954. He died in 2010 at age 80. The photo shows him with the University of Texas.
