Marlins throw no-hitter in Yankees game honoring Mariano Rivera
PANAMA CITY, Panama -- The grandstands of Rod Carew Stadium were packed with life on Saturday, a colorful and festive crowd savoring this once-in-a-lifetime treat of having big league baseball relocate for a weekend to this Central American nation.
They came to honor the career of Mariano Rivera, who said he had long dreamed of having his Yankees travel here, and commented that this experience had exceeded even those expectations. But they stood, chanted and cheered for the game as well, witnessing four pitchers combine to no-hit New York in a 5-0 Spring Training victory for Miami.
"You never want to be no-hit," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "I don't care what game it is, what level. You never want to see that."
