Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Corbin Burnes combines with reliever Josh Hader to pitch baseball’s record 9th no-hitter this season, breaking a mark set when pitchers began throwing overhand in 1884.
This time, Cleveland was stymied by Burnes — who has become a Cy Young contender as the Brewers run away with the NL Central — and Hader, one of the game's top closers.
“I was definitely on my horse, ready to go get that one,” Cain said. “You need a little bit of everything to go right in a no-hitter.” "I had to fight pretty hard for the eighth to come back out, so I knew I had no shot for the ninth,” Burnes said.Burnes dropped his ERA to 2.25 and has more than doubled his career high for strikeouts with 210 in 152 innings. He's been vying with Philadelphia's Zack Wheeler and the Dodgers' Max Scherzer for the NL Cy Young Award. This gem, no doubt, will have some sway with voters.
Arizona rookie Tyler Gilbert had thrown the majors’ most recent no-hitter on Aug. 14, and the Chicago Cubs threw the only previous combined effort on June 24.
