Max Scherzer no-hits Pirates as Jose Tabata becomes baseball's latest villain

I'm not sure exactly how to approach a recap for a game like this. A no-hitter is clearly an historic event, and a perfect game is an even more historic one, but no-hitters and perfect games aren't nearly as significant for the teams they're happening to as for the teams they're happening for.

Remember when Homer Bailey no-hit the Pirates back in 2012? I do, kind of. It's probably lost to Pirates history more than it should be, because it happened when the Bucs were in full collapse mode, and most fans had stopped caring long before.
