One of the little details that came out of this story I found most shocking was Fay Vincent throwing out hundreds of no-hitters in the record book. Anyone have information on how or why this happened without backlash? They standardized the rule on what counts as an "official" no-hitter. Guys were getting credit for no-hitters in 5-inning, rain-shortened games and games where they gave up hits in extra innings. Also, the stupid game where Babe Ruth walked a guy, got thrown out for arguing the call, and his replacement came in and got 26 straight outs after a caught stealing. That guy used to get credit for a "perfect game." The one thing I hate about the new rules that you can't get credit for a no-hitter if you lose. So if you lose 1-0 on a hitless run, you don't get your no-hitter. Actually I think that one should still count. No hitter? Absolutely. Perfect game? No. I have no problem with either Shore's or Haddix's place in history.
