No No For {team}'s {name} Against {opponent}

Sub "No No" whenever "No Hitter" is used as a noun.

{Name} Shows {opponent} His "No" Face
{Name} Shuts Down {opponent}
Great Defense Saves {Name}'s No Hitter Against {opponent}

Quite creative.

But we can't make them Player Specific right now.

They have to be used for all players.

The first two would apply to only players with name beginning with "O".

Maybe one day we could have them with the condition the last name begins with a certain letter.

That would be great.
