At first glance, it's a fun story: pitcher throws a no-hitter on LSD 51 years ago this week. It sounds like an underdog, counterculture story from the tail-end of the '60s. And it was, sort of. But it was also, as Mike and Bill recount, just one of many stories in the life of Dock Ellis that eventually led to abuse and tragedy for him and for his family as he descended further into addiction. Meanwhile, Mike also wishes a happy birthday to Bud Harrelson.
