SAN FRANCISCO — This was another reminder about the improbability of sport. A few hours after Roy Halladay of the Phillies had his no-hitter, Barry Zito of the Giants in effect became no pitcher, removed from the playoff roster.
Everyone knew Halladay would be dominant, but no one suspected he would throw two no-hitters, including one a perfect game, in a matter of months.
Everyone believed Barry Zito would be dominant. To the contrary, he's been a disappointment. And a very expensive one, if that is of consequence.
