Suarez Fires No-Hitter
The no-hitter is one of baseball's truly egalitarian achievements. It's done by the great and the not-so-great alike, and for nearly all of them it represents the pinnacle of a career. <Oregon Explorers:team#75> pitcher <Owen Suarez:player#11296> had his moment today at Multnomah Stadium, holding the <Texas Outlaws:team#73> hitless and beating them, 2-0.

"Everything was working for him," Outlaws manager <Andrew Cole:manager#81> said. "He had a lot of late movement that seemed to cause the guys trouble, especially from the fifth inning on.  He was in command."

Suarez rung up 7 strikeouts, issued 1 walk and faced only 28 hitters in his historic outing. After the game, he spoke to BNN reporters in the Oregon locker room.

"I really got nervous in the last inning," Suarez recalled. "I knew I had a chance at a no-hitter but it was hard to stay calm and concentrate. Thank goodness for my catcher. He told me he would do all the thinking and I could just concentrate on hitting his glove."

In 6 starts this season <Suarez:player#11296> has notched a 2-3 record and a 2.48 ERA.
