What about Kevin Orie?

He was the 3B that booted the ball in the 20k game.

I don't get it. Was it a one-hitter, and that play was ruled a hit instead of an error or something?

The only thing I remember about that game was Derek Bell swinging and missing by like 2.5 feet. The others were only missing by a foot or so. I don't recall how many hits were allowed.

that's correct. It was a one hitter. Orie's ball was early in the game but should have been ruled an error. It was a ball hit a few steps to his left that went off the edge of his glove. Wood did hit one batter, so it would have been a no-hitter, not a perfect game.

I was at the game and we (the whole bleachers) stayed for about 20-30 minutes after the game chanting E5 to no avail hoping the scorekeeper would change it. FWIW, there was an E5 sign in the bleachers for pretty much the whole game hoping they would change the ruling. By far, the most fun I have ever had at a baseball game that did not involve playing or an obscene amount of alcohol.
