On September 3, 2001, Bud Smith became the 16th rookie in modern history to throw a no-hitter. He achieved this remarkable feat during a St. Louis match against the San Diego Padres, resulting in a commanding 4-0 victory. This remarkable game saw Smith taking the mound for just his 11th career start, showcasing his potential as a rising talent in Major League Baseball.
In 1990, Bobby Thigpen set a major league record with his 47th save while playing for the Chicago White Sox against the Kansas City Royals. This achievement not only secured the game with a final score of 4-2 but also saw Thigpen break the previous record held by Dave Righetti of the New York Yankees, which was set in 1986. Thigpen's record would be a significant milestone in his career and in the league's record books.
