Al Leiter pitches the first no-hitter in the Marlins’ brief existence, beating the Rockies, 11-0

On May 11, 1996 — Al Leiter pitches the first no-hitter in the Marlins’ brief existence, beating the Rockies, 11-0. Leiter strikes out six and walks two batters. The celebration at Miami’s Joe Robbie Stadium is tempered by the news of the ValuJet crash in the Everglades earlier in the day.

2014 – Major League Baseball upholds a protest filed by the Giants over their rain-shortened 2 – 0 loss to the Cubs on August 19th. The game was called after 4 1/2 innings, but the Giants successfully argue that the Cubs did not properly deploy the tarp at Wrigley Field, dumping accumulated rainwater on the infield and preventing the game from resuming when the rain abated after a few minutes. The game will resume tomorrow in the bottom of the 5th inning, prior to the regularly scheduled game between the two teams. This is the first successful protest in 28 years. When the game resumes, the Cubs will be able to hold on for a 2 – 1 win.
