With two outs in the ninth inning, Yu Darvish allowed a hit to Marwin Gonzalez on Tuesday night.

The single broke up a no-hitter and perfect game as the Texas Rangers defeated the Houston Astros 7-0.

"I think my teammates were more disappointed than I was," Darvish said through a translator.

The right-hander from Japan struck out a career-high 14 batters.

Remarkable game from Darvish.. even as an Angels fan I was rooting for him to get the perfect game.
