"The control wasn't there. Right away, I said to myself, 'Kenny, you haven't got too much today.' And I was hoping we'd get a lot of runs. The breaking stuff just wasn't there...I knew I didn't have any strikeouts and when I got to the fifth inning, I knew I wasn't going to get any. I had no curve, no changeup, so I made up my mind to challenge the hitters with my fastball and let them hit it." - Ken Holtzman in Baseball Digest (Stephen D. Boren, August 1992, 'They Pitched No-Hitters Without a Single Strikeout!')
