    Julio demonstrating how the "no hitter" is a lad of arbitrary nonsense. complete game shutout with one single and zero walks is a better performance than some of those 4+ BB "no hitters"

    Sure. A no-hitter is just what it is - you didn't give up a hit. Just like hitting for the cycle is not as good as hitting 3 HR, and I don't think anyone would argue otherwise.

    sure, but one is given this special significance (no hitter) and yet one can pitch a superior game to many (not all) no hitters and get no such acclaim.

    He can be eligible in 2017 if he leaves Clemson and goes to a junior college.

    Sounds about right. If he says he is planning to do that, then great... but I want to hear it from him.
