Baseball question: 2-2-2

    Other than Lincecum, does anybody have two no-hitters, two Cy Youngs and two World Series championships?

    Koufax surely.

    He actually had 4-3-4 (4 no-hitters, 3 Cy Youngs, 4 World Series rings).

    Think I heard Lincecum, Koufax, Randy Johnson and Roy Halladay are the only pitchers with multiple no hitters and multiple Cy Youngs.

    Lincecum and Halladay would be in the 2-2-2 club. Koufax had four no hitters and three Cys and Unit was 5 and 2.

    Koufax is only other one with more than one championship.

    Halladay never won a World Series.

    Carlton never threw a no-hitter.

    Johnson and Halladay don't have two World Series rings.

    It's just Lincecum and Koufax?

    When he threw the no-no last year, there was this note: The pitchers with two Cy Young Awards, two World Series titles and a no-hitter: Bob Gibson, Sandy Koufax, Jim Palmer and Lincecum.

    Scratch Gibson and Palmer from the updated list. So, yeah, now it's just Koufax and Mister Four-Plus ERA.

    Damn. Maybe the aliens jinxed him.

    Pretty sure (though if the Cy Young Award had existed in Christy Mathewson's time, he probably would have won 3 or 4).

    Koufax won three WS titles, right? Dodgers didn't win in '66?

    He was on the team in 1955, though he didn't pitch in the World Series. And was on the teams that won in 1959, 63, 65.

    I thought this would answer -- or at least ask again -- a question I've had for 20 years. I've seen two balls, two strikes and two outs called a bugaboo, and I don't understand why.
