Rookie Heston no-hits Mets in SF鈥檚 win
Print Edition
CHRIS Heston pitched the first no-hitter in Major League Baseball this season in his 13th career start, leading the visiting San Francisco Giants over the New York Mets 5-0 on Tuesday.
The rookie allowed three baserunners, all on hit batters. He also had a two-run single for his first big league RBI and finished with two more hits than the Mets.
“I’m still not sure what just happened out there, to be honest with you,” Heston, 27, told reporters. “A lot of emotions running through my mind right now. That was a really cool experience.”
The pitching-rich Giants have thrown a no-hitter in four straight seasons, with Heston following Matt Cain’s perfect game against Houston in 2012, and hitless gems by Tim Lincecum in 2013 and 2014.
The only other team to accomplish that feat was the Giants’ rivals Los Angeles Dodgers from 1962-65, according to STATS. Hall of Famer Sandy Koufax pitched all four of those.
Heston (6-4) struck out 11 — six looking — for the World Series champions, and allowed just two balls into the outfield.
As the crowd of 23,155 gave Heston a standing ovation at Citi Field, Giants teammates came out of the dugout and bullpen to mob him.
