Awesome moment for Dylan Cease as he tosses just the 2nd no-hitter in Padres history. I get that no-nos have become more common over the years and don't have the same hype since Manfred started messing with the balls. Still pretty cool, especially considering he lost a no hitter bid in the 9th inning with two outs a couple years ago. That was to his current teammate Luis Arraez. 

It took 114 pitches and a few circus plays from Xander Bogaerts, but he got the job done this time.

Congrats to White Sox Dave, well deserved. 

P.S. Cease has been fucking incredible over his last three starts. The Padres are pushing now and just in time for the deadline so Preller can do something crazy. You know he's been itching to unload the clip on a star. We shall see next week.
