Red Sox rookie Buchholz no-hits Orioles!

In only his 2nd major league start, rookie Red Sox pitcher Clay Buchholz threw the 17th no-hitter in franchise history, the 8th at Fenway Park.

The Red Sox scored 10 runs behind Buchholz as he hit one batter, walked three, and struck out nine in a masterful 115-pitch performance.

It doesn't quite make up for the sweep at the hands of the hated, contemptible, vile, despicable, wretched, abominable, craven, [insert your favorite adjective here] Yankees earlier in the week, but it definitely helps. :)

Later!
