First no-hitter of 2020
Print Edition
Chicago White Sox pitcher Lucas Giolito tossed the first no-hitter of the pandemic-disrupted baseball season on Tuesday, blanking the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-0 in Chicago. The 26-year-old right-handed pitcher struck out 13 batters and walked just one, getting the final out in the ninth when Pirates batter Erik Gonzalez hit a line drive to right field that was caught by Adam Engel. Pittsburgh’s only baserunner came when Gonzalez walked in the fourth inning. It is the first no-hitter for the White Sox since Philip Humber threw a perfect game in a 4-0 win over the Seattle Mariners in 2012. The ninth inning began with Giolito striking out Jarrod Dyson and then getting Jose Osuna to foul out. Gonzalez was looking at a 0-2 pitch when he lined out to seal the no-hitter. Last year, Giolito had two shutouts and a pair of complete games. Chicago scored three runs in the second, getting RBIs from Engel, Tim Anderson and Eloy Jimenez. A sac fly from James McCoy tacked on the final run in the third.
