Blake Snell No-Hits Cincy
Blake Snell Throws 18th No-Hitter in SF History
On Friday, August 2nd, 2024, Blake Snell engraved himself into San Francisco Giants history by throwing the 18th No-Hitter in franchise history.
Before Friday night, Snell had never pitched further than the 7th inning. However, with Snell allowing 0 hits through the first 7 innings, Giants manager Bob Melvin allowed Snell to finish the game. Snell, who won the 2023 National League Cy Young Award with the Padres last year has a 1-3 record this season with a 4.29 ERA & a 1.13 WHIP.
In addition to 0 hits, Snell’s three walks where the difference from a no-hitter and a perfect game. However, Snell earned his first win of the season as well as winning the NL Player of the Week Award for his no-hitter.
