| Yes, It's a No-No by Melchor | David Melchor really did a number on the Orlando Orange at Orange Park -- and that number was zero.
The Jacksonville Jackals hurler had what he later called "one of the best moments of my life," tossing a no-hitter and leading the Jackals to victory, 3-0.
"This is something special," Melchor said. "I knew from the fifth inning that I had a no-hitter working. I tried to get it out of my mind, but you just can't. They have too many scoreboards in the park. They're everywhere you look."
The right-hander faced only 28 batters in the no-hit gem, struck out 7 and walked 1.
"We simply couldn't get any wood on the ball," Orlando manager David Fields said when asked about the epic performance. "Melchor was brilliant out there. He certainly had our number."
