Gannon Razzle-Dazzles with No-Hitter Saturday, May 3rd , 1975 Milwaukee Dairymen starter John Gannon said he was standing behind the mound when the scoreboard caught his eye, confirming what he already knew: He was one out from a no-hitter. For a couple of seconds, he didn't move. "I took a breath and told myself 'This is the last one,'" Gannon recalled. The right-hander collected himself, got the final out, and finished one of the greatest performances of his career. The Milwaukee right-hander no-hit the New York Knickerbockers, 3-0, at Milwaukee Municipal Stadium, finishing with 2 walks and 7 strikeouts, facing only 29 batters. "I knew for a while it was a no-hitter," Gannon admitted later. "But I really didn't worry about it until the last out. I thought I just wanted to win the game, and then I realized I wanted the no-hitter, too." This year, Gannon has compiled a 3-3 record with a 2.85 ERA in 6 starts.
