Bud Norris was born on Saturday, March 2, 1985, in Greenbrae, California. Norris was 24 years old when he broke into the big leagues on July 29, 2009, with the Houston Astros. His biographical data, year-by-year hitting stats, fielding stats, pitching stats (where applicable), career totals, uniform numbers, salary data and miscellaneous items-of-interest are presented by Baseball Almanac on this comprehensive Bud Norris baseball stats page.
"No matter what Bud Norris does or doesn't accomplish for the rest of his career, he'll always be able to reminisce about a sunny Sunday afternoon at Busch Stadium when he dominated a lineup that included some of baseball's best and hottest hitters. The fresh-faced, fast-talking California kid with the electric arm owned the first-place St. Louis Cardinals in his first Major League start (August 2, 2009), throwing seven scoreless innings and getting a hit in his first at-bat to lead the Astros to a 2-0 win. Norris, pitching in his second big league game, carried a no-hitter into the sixth inning before Cardinals starter Adam Wainwright broke it up with a leadoff single. He walked four batters and struck out five while throwing 91 pitches. 'I haven't had a chance to let it soak in yet, but it's probably No. 1,' said Norris, when asked by reporters where Sunday ranked among the best thrills of his young life." - McTaggart, Brian. MLB Staff Writer. Norris' gem in first start gives Astros lift. 2 August 2009.
