Pollard Throws No-Hitter
OK, so you know that Guided by Voices’ Robert Pollard is a prolific songwriter with over 1,600 songs to his credit. But did you know that he threw a no-hitter while pitching for Wright State in 1978? The 9-1 victory over Indiana State was only one of the twelve (!) no-hitters that Pollard threw between the ages of 10 and 20. “I wasn’t completely dominating,” Pollard said of the collegiate no-no. “I think my location was pretty good and I was getting some good defense… I was shocked when my team mobbed me after the final out.”
