Phillies honor Roy Halladay's no-hitter with NLDS Game 2 first pitch

The Philadelphia Phillies celebrated some history with the first pitch before Game 2 of the National League Division Series.

The Phillies honored the 15th anniversary of Roy Halladay’s postseason no-hitter.

Who threw out the first pitch before NLDS Game 2?

Braden and Ryan Hallady, the sons of the late Hall of Fame pitcher Roy Halladay, threw out the first pitch to Carlos Ruiz, who caught Halladay’s no-hitter.

When was Roy Halladay’s no-hitter?

In his first postseason appearance, Halladay threw a no-hitter in Game 1 of the NLDS against the Cincinnati Reds on Oct. 6, 2010.

The last out came on a slow dribbler in front of the plate that Ruiz grabbed and threw to first for the final out. Halladay was a walk away from a perfect game while striking out eight.

The Phillies swept the series, but lost to the eventual World Series champion San Francisco Giants in the NL Championship Series.
