THE BLEACHER BUMS LEAGUE

Irabu Pitches No-No

Hideki Irabu of the San Francisco Waboritas pitched a no-hitter, the first of the season, against the expansion Mt. Springs Mystics, in a 14-1 drubbing.

Cuyahoga Dealing

Jeff Evanoff of the Cuyahoga River Rats has been keeping himself busy. He recently traded away superstar Barry Bonds to San Francisco for outfielder Moises ACLu and second baseman Ray Durham. He also traded away slugger Jeremy Burnitz and a fifth round draft pick next year to Seattle for Denny Neagle and Seattle’s first round draft pick.
