Yoshinobu Yamamoto almost had the first no-hitter of the 2025 season.
With just one out to go in the Dodgers’ game against the Orioles on Saturday, Yamamoto gave up a solo home run to shortstop Jackson Holliday — ultimately ending his no-hit bid.
Nevertheless, Yamamoto had a strong outing for Los Angeles, striking out 10 batters and walking two, over 8 ⅔ innings pitched.
The MLB has yet to see a no-hitter this season, with the feat last occurring just over a year ago on Sep. 4, 2024 when three Cubs pitchers threw a combined no-hitter against the Pirates.
The last solo no-hitter belongs to Yamamoto’s teammate Blake Snell on Aug. 2, 2024 when the lefty shut down the Reds when he was a member of the Giants.
Baltimore ultimately ended up winning Saturday’s game, 4-3, on a walk-off single by Emmanuel Rivera.
