MIAMI GARDENS -- Pedro Martinez(9-4) was on top of his game in Florida as he tossed a beauty of a no-hitter against the Florida Marlins.  The Montreal Expos won by a score of 2 to 0.

Martinez was spectacular.  He walked 2 Florida batters.  The tension started to build around the 6th inning.  By the 9th inning the crowd was electrified.  Martinez chalked up 11 strikeouts.  The pitchers took over after the 1st inning as neither team was able to score again. 

Alex Fernandez(6-4) was hit with the loss.  He was stingy with the baserunners, allowing just 3 hits and 1 walk in 6 innings.

What a show!' Montreal's manager said.  'Martinez was great out there -- I'm happy that he got it.'
