We don't yet know the end of the story for Roy "Doc" Halladay's 2010 Major League Baseball adventure, but it's already been simply amazing, to put it mildly. He threw a perfect game (27 batters up, 27 batters retired) back in the Spring, won 21 games for the Phillies over the course of his first season with them, and last night appeared in his first ever postseason game... and promptly no-hit the Cincinnati Reds!
It was only the 2nd time in MLB playoff history that someone had recorded a no-hitter (Don Larsen did it, in perfect game form, back in 1956). In other words, Doc is having a season for the ages, and it's still early in the National League Division Series right now! Who knows what the rest of October may bring... and it couldn't all happen to a nicer guy.
