Michael Wacha came THIS close to pitching a no-hitter on Tuesday

Just like Yusmeiro Petit and Yu Darvish before him, Cardinals starter Michael Wacha came within one out of a no-hitter on Tuesday night. Here's the video below.

Darvish and Petit were both very close, but this one may have been the closest. If only he had a bigger glove ...

The rookie pitched 8 2/3 scorless innings and allowed one hit and two walks while striking out nine in the 2-0 win over the Nats. An exceptional job.
