Blake Snell, a pitcher for the San Francisco Giants, threw a no-hitter against the Cincinnati Reds on Friday night, marking the 18th no-hitter in Giants history.
Snell dominated the Reds, striking out 11 batters and allowing only three walks, leading the Giants to a 3-0 victory.
This was Snell's first no-hitter, and he achieved this milestone after overcoming a one-hour rain delay.
The Giants, who had been rumored to trade Snell before the trade deadline, validated their decision to keep him with this impressive performance.
