UNDATED (AP) — This Major League Baseball season has produced more no-hitters in any one year since pitchers began to throw overhand in 1884.
The Milwaukee Brewers have authored the ninth no-hitter of the season as Corbin Burnes combined with reliever Josh Hader to lead a 3-0 shutout of the Indians. Burnes struck out 14 with 115 pitches over eight innings, taking a perfect game into the seventh while overpowering the Indians.
Burnes fanned 11 of his first 14 hitters and retiring the first 18 in order before Myles Straw walked leading off the seventh.
It’s the third time the Indians have been no-hit this season, not including the seven-inning no-no thrown against them by Tampa Bay.
