For the second straight season, a pitcher tosses a no-hitter on the last day of the regular season. After Henderson Alvarez last year, it’s Jordan Zimmermann’s turn to shine, as the Nationals defeat Miami, 1 – 0. It is the first no-hitter in Nats history, although they recorded four such games when they were the Montréal Expos. Ironically, Alvarez ends up the loser, allowing a solo homer to Ian Desmond in the 2nd for the only run of the game. LF Steven Souza saves the day by making a tremendous catch of a line drive by Christian Yelich to end the game.
