Thinking on fly helped Iannetta end no-hitter
Iannetta doubles to break no-no 0:46 8/26/15: Chris Iannetta lines a double right on the left-field line to end Justin Verlander's bid for a no-hitter in the 9th inningDETROIT -- With one out in the top of the sixth inning of the Angels' 5-0 loss to the Tigers on Wednesday night, Chris Iannetta reached full desperation mode. The Angels' catcher had just popped up another hittable fastball, dropping his batting average to .184 and making an out for the 48th time in his last 54 at-bats. Iannetta walked back into the dugout and told Paul Sorrento, one of the team's assistant hitting coaches, "All right, man, I've got nothing."
