both balls should have been solid basehits, but great defensive plays preserved the no hitter for them.

Quite true.
Shortstop Tyler Engle caught a ball in the 8th that looked like it took an odd hop as he was diving for it. He gloved it, his face hit the ground, and then he got a force-out at 2nd base.
The last out of the 7th inning was a fine diving catch by 2nd-baseman Cory Kovanda.
