It was great to see the Mets fans happy to see the great performance of a Phillies pitcher.
I remember hearing once, former Yankee Elston Howard, said the only time he was booed in Yankees Stadium, was when he got a base hit to break up a no hit bid by a Red Sox pitcher. He got that hit with two out in the last of the ninth. With the Red Sox ahead 6-0, there was no way the Yanks could pull it out. But those Yankees fans were rooting for Bill Rohr to close out the no-hitter.
I was going to mention that game. I know what the play by play announcer Ken Coleman said because it wound up on the “Impossible Dream” record put out by WHDH after the seasons. He said that Rohr was “on the threshold of his first major league victory, Something Runs, Something Hits, for Boston, no runs, no hits for New York”. He did NOT say he was on the threshold of a no hitter. He just stated the number of hits so far. And with two outs in the ninth, Elston Howard broke it up.
