Saturday 7/23/1992: Montreal has no chance in a NO-HITTER by Sid Fernandez
MONTREAL - Los Angeles (N)'s left-hander Sid Fernandez made some history today, firing a no-hitter against Montreal.

Fernandez (10-6) struck out 9 and walked 3, throwing 69 of 112 pitches for strikes.

Brown (12-4) struck out 4 and walked 1, throwing 59 of 98 pitches for strikes. Von Hayes helped Brown at the plate, he finished with 1 hit in 2 AB, stroking a double, and collecting 4 RBI.

Thursday 7/21/1992: Huge blow for Detroit's Robinson, career over
DETROIT - It was one of baseball saddest days. Detroit's right-hander Ron Robinson fell victim to a career ending injury in a game against New York (A) on Thursday. He complained about pain after throwing a pitch to Joe Oliver, then suddenly collapsed. Detroit wasted no time and rushed him to an hospital. Team officials were informed later that Robinson had suffered a Torn Tricep Muscle. This season Robinson compiled an ERA of 3.47, going 9-7 in 22 starts. He fanned 88 while giving up 137 hits in 148 innings. Ron has pitched one shutout and 3 complete games. His career featured a record of 104-83 with an ERA of 4.13.

'Pitching a great game is always a good thing. And it doesn't get much better than today.' Hershiser (10-3) fanned 7 and walked none, throwing 111 pitches.
