Tom Gordon took a no-hitter into the 7th inning as the Denver Dingers defeated
the Savannah Rumrunners by a score of 5 to 1 at Dodger Stadium.

Gordon(12-4) delivered a fine performance for Denver.  He went 7 innings and
surrended up 2 hits and 5 walks.  The right-handed Gordon had his no-hit bid
broken up by Quinton McCracken who singled with nobody out in the 7th inning.
Denver finished with 7 hits while Savannah ended up with 2.  

Pedro Astacio(6-9) took the loss.  'It felt really nice to get this win,'
Gordon said. 'I kind of dictated the game. It's what I get paid to do. It
worked out this time.'
