HOOPER PROJECT: Congrats to Chris Whittington, for racking up his second straight Hooper win with yesterday's anchorman bit: the three are, of course, Couric, Williams, and Gibson. Back to you, Mr. Connolly...

Tonight, in honor of the opening of the baseball playoffs, some diamond Hoopers. Three points to the first and one to each additional Comper who can tell me: (a) Who threw the only no-hitter in post-season history, (b) Who earned the nickname "Mr. October" for his playoff heroics?, and (c) Who threw a ten-inning shutout to win game seven of the 1991 World Series? Play ball!
