Valenzuela, Stewart Hurl No-Hitters
Fernando Valenzuela of the Dodgers joined the Oakland Athletics’ Dave Stewart in the record book Friday night, pitching the second no-hitter of the day and baseball’s fourth in June.
Valenzuela (6-6) defeated the St. Louis Cardinals, 6-0, at Dodger Stadium a few hours after Stewart no-hit the Toronto Blue Jays, 5-0, at Toronto.
It was the most no-hitters thrown in one month and the most in one league in one month. It was also the first time in baseball history that no-hitters had been thrown in both leagues on the same day.
