Bartolo Colon

Sunday Night Baseball was the Bartolo Colon show as the 44 year old veteran retired the first 21 batters he faced in a 3-1 victory against the Astros. The last pitcher older than Colon to take a no-hitter into the eighth inning or later was Gaylord Perry, for the Royals on August 19, 1983. Colon's final state line was 7.2 innings pitched, one hit, one earned run, and seven strikeouts.
