El Paso Hexed: No-Hit by Serna
Friday, June 21st , 2047
Tacoma Rainiers starter Jorge Serna said he was standing behind the mound when the scoreboard caught his eye, confirming what he already knew: He was one out from a no-hitter. For a couple of seconds, he didn't move.
"I took a breath and told myself 'This is the last one,'" Serna recalled.
The right-hander collected himself, got the final out, and finished one of the greatest performances of his career.
The Tacoma right-hander no-hit the El Paso Chihuahuas 2-0 at Cheney Stadium, finishing with 4 walks and 5 strikeouts, facing only 32 batters.
"I knew for a while it was a no-hitter," Serna admitted later. "But I really didn't worry about it until the last out. I thought I just wanted to win the game, and then I realized I wanted the no-hitter, too."
