"The Pirates were clinging to their 1-0 lead. Dock (Ellis) was staring at the scoreboard when he realized he'd pitched hitless ball for seven innings. He smacked (Dave) Cash on the arm. 'Hey, look,' said Dock, pointing at the scoreboard. 'I've got a no-no going!' Cash gave him a blank look. 'A no-no?' asked Cash. He'd never heard the term before. But Cash wanted to keep the pitcher loose and happy, so he smiled and said nothing." - High Times Magazine (August 1987)
