Dusty Baker either knows something we don't, or was being super cautious with his star pitcher Sunday, pulling Stephen Strasburg just 6 2/3 innings into a no-hitter.
Of course, Strasburg wasn't even on the roster 90 minutes before the game and is fresh off the DL. Still, 109 pitches in, Baker made the decision to pull him.
Most interestingly, it wasn't the first time a pitcher with a no-hitter was pulled from a game.
Strasburg isn't the most durable guy, having already undergone Tommy John surgery in 2011, so caution is probably the best option. No-hitter be damned, I suppose.
