Ive never heard of a pitcher being taken out after a no-hitter through 8. Did he get hurt or something?

Still though, I dont understand not giving him a chance. Take him out in 5 or 6 if youre worried about injury, not with 3 outs away from a no-hitter.

He threw a lot of pitches. I think he was already at about 100 after the 7th, then he convinced the manager to leave him in for the 8th and he got up to 115 pitches. Between the really high pitch count, the fact that the game was still close enough to be a save situation, and the playoffs coming up soon, it makes all the sense in the world to take him out and bring in the closer.
