And here is Pedro's version . . . He got the win though.

Pedro Martinez had a perfect game when he entered the tenth frame, but he gave up a lead-off double to Bip Roberts. Martinez lost his bid for perfection, lost his "official" no-hitter, and was replaced by his manager (Felipe Alou)!
Did you know that Pedro Martinez threw just ninety-six pitches during this game and sixty-seven of them were strikes?
Only forty-one days later, Pedro Martinez's brother Ramon Martinez threw a no-hitter versus the Florida Marlins!
