I always give credit when credit is due. So, congrats to Justin Verlander, the 24-year old phenom from the Tigers, pitched a no hitter tonight against the brew-crew from Milwaukee. Verlander (7-2) struck out 12 batters in Detroit's 4-0 win over the Brewers. Verlander was the second to throw a no-hitter in the MLB this year, as Mark Buerhle from the ChiSox did it back in April. With today's dominant hitters (for example, he faced the red-hot Prince Fielder tonight), this is no easy feat. Well done Justin.Tuesday, June 12, 2007
