That Time Dock Ellis Took LSD And Pitched A No-Hitter has been added as a related post - related requested by eric3579 on that post.

2nd favorite moment in baseball next to Dock Ellis' no-hitter while on LSD pitching against the Padres in 1970.

Got a bud who was a pitcher in high-school..he had a slider that wass unpredictable, in that it did what a slider was supposed to until just before the plate, where it was a toss-up as to which way it would move...but if you got a piece of it, you could hand him his ass.....He pitched a near no-hitter up until the 10th inning, when he went against his catchers signals, and gave their star batter an inside fastball with bases loaded.......(*insert cracking bat and opposing cheers sound here)
