White Sox Season Over: White Sox Minor League Update

Due to increased commenting and the White Sox season now being officially over, we're going weekly.

As far as no-hitters go, this one was hardly the type that ends with the pitcher jumping into his catcher's arms before getting swarmed by his teammates.

Aaron Poreda will take it, just the same.

The former first-round pick struck out eight and walked five over five hitless innings Monday as the Birmingham Barons blanked the West Tenn Diamond Jaxx, 3-0, in front of 1,795 wet fans at Regions Park.

"It feels awesome," Poreda said. "I haven't thrown one since high school and it's quite a feeling. For me personally, it wouldn't be as nice as it would if I had pitched all nine innings, but on the scoreboard it says complete-game no-hitter. You just have to appreciate it because it doesn't happen very often."
