Just 2 days after Jim Palmer of the AL
Baltimore Orioles threw the 1st no-hitter in the major leagues this season, Chicago Cub pitcher Dick Selma(2-2) thrilled the fans at Wrigley Field as he crafted a no-hit masterpiece against the San Diego Padres. The sizzling Chicago Cubs won by a final score of 2 to 0. Selma had an afternoon to remember. Heck, it's one we'll all remember! What a game at Wrigley Field! He only walked one San Diego batter. The tension started to build around the 6th inning. By the 9th inning the crowd was electrified and exploded in wild celebration after Selma got the final out. Chicago had 8 hits for the afternoon and have now won 12 in a row. Dick Kelley(0-4) was hit with the loss. It was a tough loss for him as he did not allow an earned run in his 5 innings of work. After the game, Selma was heard to say, 'This is something I have dreamt about since I was a little boy - to have it come true is just amazing!'
