Not just a no hitter 1 Daryl Spencer error from a a perfecto. No really much of a close call in 9th a 1-3 1b came up 4 but he just shut down a bad offense. I've been blessed with many of these in Strat- trying to locate my list as I type this.

San Francisco fans certainly got their money's worth at Seals Stadium. Mike
McCormick(2-5) pitched a rare no-hitter as the San Francisco Giants toppled
the Chicago White Sox 2 to 0.
McCormick was cheered on with every out from the 7th inning onward. The
adrenaline had to be just pumping through his veins. The atmosphere was
electric out there in Seals Stadium this afternoon! He surrendered no walks
and could have tossed a perfect game if it were not for the fielding error.
The tension was mounting with every inning after the 6th. McCormick appeared
oblivious himself to the mounting history until two were out in the 9th.
Only then, did he allow himself one deep sigh and a slow trip around the
mound. San Francisco banged out 8 on the afternoon.
Joe Horlen(3-2) was hit with the loss. 'Not in my wildest dreams did I think
this would happen!' McCormick said as he stood at home plate to salute the
fans. 'Once I got into the later innings, I decided to challenge every
hitter, and that turned out to be the right decision!'
