Reds Pitcher Homer Bailey Says a No-No After Throwing First No-No of the Season

Tuesday night Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Homer Bailey had every reason to be a little bit excited. With a stellar performance against the San Francisco Giants he succeeded in doing what no player had yet to do this season--throw a no-hitter and allow no-runs (a no-no).

After the game he was likely riding a high (it's the second time he's thrown a no-no the first one coming at the end of last season) so I'm going to assume he wasn't thinking when he before he answered a question in the post-game interview.

Otherwise he wouldn't have said a no-no (yes, the video is NSFW):



He could also be a little angry with himself for coming within one batter of a perfect game. He waked Gregor Blanco in the seventh inning.

Blanco was at least kind enough to be the last out of the game.
