Edinson Volquez of the Marlins throws the first no-hitter of the year, defeating the Diamondbacks, 3 – 0. He allows a pair of walks, but both baserunners are erased on double plays, so he faces the minimum 27 batters in his masterpiece. He almost leaves the game after one batter, after he collides with Rey Fuentes at first base and turns his ankle, but he stays in and pitches the game of his life.
