Rochester Dazed, Estes Gets No-Hitter
Is it better to be lucky or good?

After leading the Hartford Whalers to victory, 7-0, and tossing a no-hitter over the Rochester Red Wings, Shawn Estes didn't have the answer.

"I don't know," Estes said. "To do what I did today, I'm pretty sure it takes both."

On his big day at Wolves Ballpark, Estes fanned 11 and had 1 walk. And it seemed that when the Red Wings managed to hit the ball hard, it went right at a defender.

"That's how you get a no-hitter," Estes said with a smile. "A lot of skill mixed with a little luck."

Estes has taken the mound for no relief appearances this season, nailing down no saves while notching a 4-2 record with a 3.55 ERA. The Hartford reliever has limited opposing batters to a .218 batting average.
