| Brandon Backe pitches the 8th one-hitter of my SOM season, with the only hit (and baserunner) for the Pirates being Xavier Nady, who doubled in the 2nd inning. Well 9 one-hitters sort of, if you count Jake Peavy's 11 innings of one hit ball to start a 19 inning game back in July. No no-hitters so far. Curt Schilling, in the Sox game I just played but unblogged due to internet problems at the time, tossed 7 innings of no-hit ball until Jorge Posada broke up the no-no bid when he led off the 8th inning with a single in a 3-1 Sox win over the Yankees and Roger Clemens to knock the Sox magic number down to 4. |

Mark Loretta hit 2 doubles and had 2 RBI and Brandon Backe blanked Pittsburgh
allowing just 1 hit at Minute Maid Field as the Houston Astros beat the
Pittsburgh Pirates 4 to 0.
Backe(3-0) was indeed brilliant as he hand-cuffed the Pittsburgh offense. He
didn't allow much, just 1 hit and no walks in 9 innings lowering his ERA from
2.00 to 1.33. Houston rapped out 8 hits for the afternoon.
Paul Maholm(6-14) absorbed the loss. He pitched 5 innings and surrendered 4
hits and 1 walk. 'We didn't have a whole lot of chances today,' Jim Tracy
said. 'Backe just was too much for our guys.'
