Pedro Martinez took a no-hitter into the 9th inning as the New York (NL) Mets
outscored the Pittsburgh Pirates 1 to 0.

Martinez(1-1) simply dominated Pittsburgh.  He didn't give up much, just 1 hit
and 1 walk in 9 innings lowering his ERA to 1.72.  The right-handed Martinez
lost his no-hit bid when Tony Fernandez doubled with two outs in the 9th
inning.  Pittsburgh threatened in the 9th but their rally came up short.

The losing pitcher was Randy Johnson(1-1).  Despite taking the loss, he
whiffed 13 batters in 7 and 2/3 innings.  'Martinez took our guys to school'
Gene Lamont said. 'Too bad he doesn't pitch for us - it would make my job a
whole lot easier!'
