If you told most baseball observers before this game that a no-hitter would be pitched I would venture to say that almost all would have simply asked "How many strike-outs did Syndegaard have?" It's possible that most Giant fans would have asked the same or a similar question. That's why you have to watch the games.

Heston did not have that buzz. A 12th-round pick in 2009 out of East Carolina University, he wasn’t on the opening day roster – an injury to Matt Cain meant he joined the rotation at the last minute – and went unclaimed when the Giants designated him for assignment a year ago.
Amazing that any major league team could have plucked him from the Giants last year. Amazing in hindsight that the Giants exposed him like that. It just goes to show you that you never can tell.
Chris Heston continues his roller-coaster season and marches into the Giants history book. Great job!!
