Kevin Gausman‘s day ended so much sooner than many would’ve hoped on Thursday.
The Toronto Blue Jays starter was pulled from Thursday’s sport towards the Texas Rangers after 5 innings of no-hit work as a result of lower-back tightness, the group introduced.
Gausman had solely allowed one baserunner within the sport when he walked Rangers first basemen Nathaniel Lowe.
The precise-hander threw 58 pitches and struck out six earlier than leaving the sport.
Reliever Dillon Tate made his Blue Jays debut when he got here in to exchange Gausman within the sixth and saved the no-hitter intact by setting down the Orioles so as.
Sadly, the Blue Jays’ mixed no-hit bid could be damaged up within the seventh when Josh Smith singled off Genesis Cabrera. Smith would attempt to flip the hit right into a double and was thrown out at second base off an incredible throw from Jays outfielder Nathan Lukes.
