When I read that a Dodger got the no-no, I immediately thought of your dad. He is the biggest Dodger fan I know too.
He has the lowest era of any pitcher with atleast 1000 innings pitched. This article is a good read and points out just how dominating he is.

While we're on the subject of having huge Dodger fans as Dad's. Mine ranks right up there as well!

Yeah I always get asked why I am a Dodgers fan. I have to tell them that my Grandfather was from LA and when they moved from Brooklyn, he started the fan hood which carried to my Dad and thus to me. As someone who not only dislikes most all pro teams but particular large market pro teams, it is interesting our family is such huge Dodgers fans. Oh well, being a die hard Cyclone and Dodger keeps us busy most of the year.
The crazy thing is it can be tough to decide which two pitches those are. His fastball, slider and curve are all downright filthy.
LA Times said only 52,000 people watched the no hitter due to the Dodger channel issues.
Time Warner seems to have really overplayed their hand on this. I hope the cable companies stand their ground

Always interesting how people in the Midwest became Dodger fans. I was all Yankees and Mickey Mantle until we moved from farm near Ankeny to San Diego when I was 9. Padres were AAA so I started listening to Vin Scully and got hooked on those great teams of late 50's and early 60's. By the time we moved back to Ankeny in 63 I was hooked and like you, they're the only pro team I have a strong allegiance to. I also passed my love for the blue crew to my kids. It's about time to head south to KC to help the Royals keep their streak alive.
