Tim Kurkjian, Jeff Passan lay out important historic perspective on Astros World Series no-hitter

MAKING HISTORY

Baseball fans have had only three opportunities to watch a no-hitter in the postseason, and just two of those occurred in the World Series. Don Larsen's perfect game in the 1956 World Series and now the Houston Astros. Pretty special stuff considering this is the 118th World Series, and it's only happened twice. What's even more incredible is that Dusty Baker was in the visitor's dugout watching the only other postseason no-hitter, which Phillies' Roy Halladay threw against Baker's Reds in the 2010 NL Division series.

And to go a step further, Jeff Passan talks about being in the stands on June 25th at Yankee Stadium this season and watching Cristian Javier and the Astros combine to no-hit the Yankees. I have to say, I didn't think I would ever see Jeff Passan so happy talking about the Astros. Be sure to check out the video above to see their immediate reactions after history was made on Wednesday night.

With the NFL Draft right around the corner, Texans GM Nick Caserio met with the media to discuss the team's approach this year since they no longer have a first round pick. He also answered questions about the acquisition of Stefon Diggs, and addressed any concerns the team has about their new receiver having the reputation as a “diva.”

In the video above, Rich Eisen reacts to Caserio's presser and projects how the season will play out for the Texans with Diggs added to the team. Let's just say he's bullish on the Texans.
