Three times in his last six starts, Dusty Baker pulled Verlander, with no-hitters in progress:

Aug 23 - 6 innings, 91 pitches, 10 Ks, 0 walks. Only baserunner he allowed was on a 3rd strike-passed ball.

Sep 16 - 5 innings, 79 pitches, 9 Ks, 1 walk.

Oct 4 - 5 innings, 77 pitches, 10 Ks. Only baserunner allowed was on a walk leading off the 5th inning.

He has to be the only pitcher in history to have this happen.

    And maybe, just maybe pulling him has kept him healthy enough to be pulled 2 more times with no hitters in progress
