Playoffs Week 4: Saturday's Roundup

Mark Reynolds broke up this man's no-hitter. Seriously.
Studs: Jake Peavy (AL) took a no-hitter into the eighth and finished with 8 Ks in a 7.2-inning win. Stephen Strasburg (DZ) struck out 8 and gave up 1 run in a 7.2-inning win. Matt Holliday (AL) went 0 for 4 in the first game of a doubleheader, then hit a 3-run homer and a solo homer in game two. He also drove in a run when he was hit by a pitch. Jarred Cosart (FF) fanned 5 and didn't allow a run in a 7-inning win. Ian Kennedy (PYB) struck out 8 and gave up 1 run in 7 innings. He also had an RBI double. Zack Greinke (PYB) singled and fanned 8 while allowing 1 run in 8 innings. 

Duds: The Rookies' infield combined for minus-5 thanks to the efforts of Ike Davis, Andrelton Simmons and Tommy La Stella — they went 1 for 11 with 3 errors. Chris Johnson (Misfits) singled and erred. Carlos Gomez (RR) walked twice but was caught stealing. Bartolo Colon (FF) gave up 6 runs in a 5.1-inning loss.
