Edward Louis Halicki (born October 4, 1950) is an American former professional baseball player who pitched in the Major Leagues from 1974 to 1980. On August 24, 1975, Halicki threw a no-hitter for the San Francisco Giants against the New York Mets in a 6–0 victory.[1] Halicki's no hitter was the last no-hit game by a Giants pitcher at home until Jonathan Sánchez's no-hit winning game on July 10, 2009. Halicki attended Kearny High School[2] and Monmouth University. Halicki was primarily a starting pitcher (157 starts, 35 relief appearances) but on August 13, 1978, he recorded his only save at the MLB level against the arch rival Dodgers. Halicki retired the only 2 batters he faced to preserve a 7–6 Giants victory.[3]
