Webb's One-Hit Wonder


(Win Probability Graph by Fangraphs)

St. Louis Pitching:
Jason Marquis: 7.0IP, 6H, 3R, 3ER, 3BB, 4SO, 1HR - Loss
Adam Wainwright: 1.0IP, 0H, 0R, 0ER, 0BB, 0SO, 0HR

Arizona Pitching:
Brandon Webb: 9.0IP, 1H, 0R, 0ER, 0BB, 5SO, 0HR - Win

This is the same Arizona Diamondbacks club that had the no-hitter thrown against them earlier in the week. This time, Brandon Webb was one hit and 2 errors away from perfection. When it comes time to award the 2006 NL Cy Young award Webb is going to be right on top of a short list.
