Saturday 4/23/1969: Rudy May fires NO-NO against Boston
CALIFORNIA - California's lefty Rudy May made some history today, firing a no-hitter against Boston.

That's a dream coming true for me!' May (2-2) did not have perfect control, walking 6. He struck out 6. The hitting star for California was second baseman Alex Johnson, he finished with 2 hits in 3 AB. The final score of the game was 4-0.

'Winning is the most important thing. And I gave my team all the support it needed!' Gerard (2-1) struck out 9 and walked 2, throwing 80 of 127 pitches for strikes. Ed Bouchee provided Washington with the offense Gerard needed as he collected 2 hits in 3 trips to the plate, stroking a double. Washington improved its record to 9-10, scoring 1 run on 3 hits.

Wednesday 4/20/1969: Mudcat Grant fires 1-hitter against Boston
