And a special tip of the Mets cap to Juan Uribe of the Dodgers (hey, didn’t they once call the NYC area home? Oh, never mind.) With 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th in LA, he doubled on a 1-2 pitch for the first Dodgers hit of the game. That kept the San Diego Padres, for the first time in their history, from completing 9 innings without allowing a hit. They still would have needed, in the 10th inning or later, both to score a run and continue to no-hit LA to actually get an official no-hitter (or lose in extras without allowing a hit), and that of course, would have left but one MLB team no-hitterless. The Padres were doing it by committee too, having pulled starter Aaron Harang after 6 innings. (And he’s not the first Padre to be lifted while hurling a no-no; in a 1970 game, manager Preston Gomez yanked Clay Kirby in the 8th for a pinch-hitter in a tight game — Padres trailed 1-0 to, um, oh yeah, the Mets.)
