Norfolk Held Hitless by Johnson
The Buffalo Bisons had a lot to celebrate as 34-year-old hurler Pierce Johnson no-hit the Norfolk Tides at Harbor Park.

In an impressive outing that keyed the 2-0 Bisons victory, Johnson had 11 strikeouts and surrendered 4 walks.

"He mixed his pitches well and hit his spots, plus he got a little help from above," said Buffalo manager Drew Saylor. "Pierce really took it to another level today."

This season, Johnson has compiled a 8-8 mark with a 2.93 ERA.
