Cleveland’s starter nearly threw a no-hitter, pitching 8.2 innings, walking four batters, and striking out six. The only hit and run Williams allowed was a solo home run off the bat of Juan Soto in the bottom of the ninth inning with one out.

Cleveland Guardians pitcher Gavin Williams came within two outs of throwing the first no-hitter in the franchise’s history in over 40 years when he pitched against the New York Mets on Wednesday afternoon.

The Guardians have the longest no-hitter drought in the majors.
