Raise the glass for Jim Bibby who recently passed away.
Bibby played 12 years in the majors, starting in 1972. In 1973 he pitched the first no-hitter in Texas Rangers history, beating Oakland, 6-0. He was a member of the Pittsburgh team that won the 1979 World Series, starting two games against Baltimore, including the deciding seventh game.
According to a family friend, Bibby died at about 9 p.m. in Lynchburg General Hospital on February 16, 2010 due to bone cancer.
