2018 – A couple of pitchers take no-hit bids deep into their respective starts today. For the Rays, Blake Snell doesn’t allow the Indians a hit until the 7th until José Ramírez hits his 38th homer, a solo shot, but comes on top, 3 – 1, for his 19th win. Minnesota’s Jake Odorizzi does even better, getting through 7 1/3 inning before Greg Bird of the Yankees laces a run-scoring double. He is also a 3 – 1 winner.
