Baseball's Best

Colorado Rockies 4 at Atlanta Braves, 0 | F -- Ubaldo Jimenez brought his 96+ mph fastball all night long (three officially clocked at 100 mph), striking out seven Braves en route to the first no-hitter in the Rockies' 18-year history.

Tampa Bay Rays 0 at Oakland Athletics 4, F | Left-hander Dallas Braden had a Mother's Day to remember as he pitched the 19th perfect game in Major League history. After losing his mother to cancer as a teenager, Braden's grandmother provided support, guidance and inspiration to the young athlete, and she was in attendance for one of the most heartwarming -- and perfect -- Mother's Days ever.

Philadelphia Phillies 1 at Florida Marlins 0 | F -- Roy Halladay became the second Phillies pitcher to throw a perfect game and the 20th Major Leaguer overall, striking out a season-high 11 of the 27 Marlins batters he faced.

Pittsburgh Pirates 2 at Washington Nationals 5 | F -- Right-hander Stephen Strasburg's highly-anticipated MLB debut could not have been more electrifying, as the rookie struck out 14, allowing just four hits over seven innings in front of the hometown fans.

LAD 9 at COL 0, F: Hideo Nomo's "Tornado" delivery had been baffling hitters for two seasons when capped an excellent sophomore year by tossing a no-hitter in the unlikeliest of ballparks: the high-altitude, hitter-friendly Coors Field

July 13, 1999: National League 1 @ American League, 4, F -- The last All-Star game of the 20th century gathered together baseball's "All-Century" team, the greatest living players of all time. This spine-tingling spectacle was augmented by the appearance of the legend among legends, Ted Williams, on hand to throw out the first pitch. His magnetism led to one of baseball's most spontaneous of magical moments, as the current and All-Century All-Stars gathered around the fragile Splendid Splinter, basking in his greatness for what was perhaps the last time. Finally, the game had to go on; the lovefest was dispersed and Williams tossed the first pitch in front of a delirious crowd. Then AL starting pitcher and Fenway's own Pedro Martinez took the mound, and made a little magic of his own.
