Holtzman, who threw his first no-hitter in 1969, struck out six batters while walking four in this one in beating the Reds 1-0, scoring that lone run himself after reaching on an error in the third and coming around on a single by second baseman Glenn Beckert.
Hard-luck losing pitcher Gary Nolan pitched eight innings, striking out three and walking none, dropping to 3-6 while Holtzman improved his record to 4-6.
That Cincinnati team was no slouch, featuring a line-up of Hal McRae, Lee May, Johnny Bench, Tony Perez, George Foster and Dave Concepcion.
Pretty amazing feat, but once again proves that the game of baseball is one incredible game when the unexpected seems to happen every day!
