On Oct. 6, 2010, Halladay tossed a no-hitter in Game 1 of the NLDS against the Cincinnati Reds. Halladay, who had pitched a perfect game in May of that same season, allowed only a fifth-inning walk to Jay Bruce.

The two-time Cy Young Award winner and eight-time All-Star retired after the 2013 season following 16 years in the majors -- the first 12 with the Toronto Blue Jays and the final four with the Phillies. Halladay was 203-105 with a 3.38 ERA and 2,117 strikeouts during his career.
