PHILADELPHIA — Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Michael Lorenzen threw a complete-game no-hitter Wednesday towards the Washington Nationals.
The Phillies received 7-0. Phillies left fielder Weston Wilson homered in his first main league plate look.
The 31-year-old Lorenzen was an All-Star this season for Detroit earlier than the Phillies acquired him on the commerce deadline for a minor leaguer. He promptly threw a season-high eight innings of two-run ball in his Phillies debut final week.
Lorenzen spent a lot of his profession as a reliever for the Reds, however he’s been solely a starter for the Tigers and Los Angeles Angels the previous couple seasons.
Houston’s Framber Valdez threw a no-hitter towards Cleveland on Aug. 1. It was the third no-hitter within the majors this season. New York Yankees right-hander Domingo Germán pitched an ideal sport at Oakland on June 28, and Matt Manning, Alex Lange and Jason Foley of Detroit threw a mixed no-no towards Toronto on July 8.
