Today's highlighted entry is one of the more exciting pennant clinching games.
1986
Houston's Mike Scott pitches a 2–0 no-hitter against the Giants at the Astrodome, clinching the National League West title for the Astros. It is the first time a pennant has ever been decided by a no-hitter, and the 3rd consecutive game in which Astros pitchers have allowed two hits or less.
This picture below, taken just after the final out of the clincher shows the emotion that keeps us coming back to sports.

Side note: It's a good thing that he didn't go by Michael Scott, or he would have been telling outdated jokes and making inappropriate comments for a paper company in Scranton, PA.
